ExxonMobil licenses technology to RTP

ExxonMobil Chemical Company has licensed patented Santoprene thermoplastic vulcanisate (TPV) nylon bonding technology to global custom engineered thermoplastics compounder RTP Company. ExxonMobil Chemical will supply Santoprene TPV feedstock to RTP Company who will manufacture RTP branded nylon bonding products using the licensed technology. The RTP 6091 branded nylon bonding TPV products provide similar performance and characteristics to the Santoprene TPV nylon bonding products previously manufactured by ExxonMobil Chemical. “In addition to its compounding capability, RTP Company has a strategic focus on high performance technical polymers and this addition of Santoprene TPV based nylon bonding technology will nicely complement the choice they offer to customers,” said Reinhart Papen, Global Marketing Manager, ExxonMobil Chemical Company. www.exxonmobilchemical.com
