What is Polyolefin Elastomer POE 8480

In the global polymer market, the demand for lightweight, flexibility and high durability continues to rise. Whether it is shoe materials, pipes, or profile extrusion and composite applications, traditional elastomers such as TPV and SEBS are facing multiple bottlenecks, including complex processing, limited strength, and relatively high costs. How to find material solutions that balance performance and efficiency under the dual background of stricter environmental protection policies and the upgrading of the high-end market has become the focus of the industry.

Dow polyolefin elastomer POE 8480 is precisely an innovative eight-carbon copolymer launched in response to this trend, helping downstream enterprises break through the limitations of product design and performance.

01 | Industry Pain Points: Technical Shortcomings of traditional elastomers

In recent years, with the increasing demand for automotive lightweighting, consumer comfort and industrial product durability, traditional TPE, TPV and SEBS are facing:

⚠ The material processing window is narrow and the process is complex

⚠ It is difficult to balance toughness and strength, and the performance is unbalanced

⚠ Poor low-temperature impact resistance and weather resistance

⚠ It is difficult to meet the demands of green, lightweight and high-end customization

These problems directly restrict product innovation and industrial upgrading.

02 | Technical Advantages of POE 8480: Breaking the balance point between performance and processing

Dow polyolefin elastomer POE 8480, as a high-performance representative of the ethylene-octene copolymer family, combines excellent toughness, durability and processing flexibility:

Key parameters
