Abstract:
A thermoplastic polymer alloy compositions including a blend of polymers that each contribute beneficial properties to the compositions. The compositions exhibit characteristics desirable for outdoor applications such as weatherability, impact resistance and durability, while offering excellent surface appearance. The compositions are particularly suitable for decking applications and as capstock materials.
Abstract:
A hose assembly, preferably a garden hose assembly, preferably having an inner tube in contact with and covered by an outer tube or jacket, wherein the jacket is not bonded, connected or attached to the inner tube between and couplers of the hose assembly, and wherein the inner tube includes a modified thermoplastic composition that exhibits desirable characteristics including fatigue resistance, abrasion resistance, and puncture resistance.

Abstract:
Halogen free flame retardant thermoplastic elastomer compositions including a hydrogenated styrenic block copolymer having relatively high styrene or mono alkenyl arene content and styrene or mono alkenyl arene in each block. Surprisingly, the compositions contain low amounts or are free of plasticizing softeners. The compositions include a blend of non-halogen flame retardants including a liquid phosphorous-containing component and a solid secondary component. The compositions are suitable for extrusion or molding and are useful for films or wire and cable applications.
