compound and the shoe industry pairing up for cost effective, better abrasion and chemical resistance product

New compound meets chemical resistance and runs for longer time because of much better abrasion against traditional polymers used in shoe industry.

Shoe manufacturers have shoe sole moulded in Vinyl blend. The shoe soles provides the protection against some of the corrosive fuels, making the shoes significantly more comfortable to wear. The Indian shoe manufacturers are one of the largest- exporter of different variants of shoes to world.

Shriram PolyTech (formerly Shriram PolyTech) and Indian Shoe manufacturers

incorporates proprietary PVC compounding technology that extends abrasion resistance and chemical resistance of PVC while retaining other key mechanical properties.

The country makes 2.2 billion pair of shoes a year. It places strong emphasis on comfort, noting that all its products are designed to make the people they are protecting want to wear them.

The industry is in continuous hunt and lookout for the materials which are good in abrasion resistance and chemical resistance against TPR's.

The abrasion resistance of (55 cu.mm – abrasion test based on DIN 53516) is only marginally lower than that of TPU used in shoe soles. The material also offers important advantages for the processor: its low processing temperature requirement leads to energy saving of the machine, even in thin wall areas. Melt viscosity (at similar temp. conditions), especially at low shear rates, is notably lower than general purpose TPR. It yields parts with high knit-line strength and low residual stresses.

processes well in most conventional injection moulds and exhibit excellent release properties. It can be injection moulded and extruded, and is available in wide range of colours.

not only improves the abrasion resistance but also improves chemical resistance against TPR, making it an excellent candidate for industrial applications. The polymer also has good hydrolytic stability.

The shoe industry having significant presence in north region and having production sites around India is present in most world markets. Country has got several brands in its portfolio of products for chemical, metal and rough terrain industries.is one of the new generation ranges of compounds from Shriram PolyTech. It helps deliver added chemical resistance and abrasion resistance among other typical properties
- Hardness, maintains hardness (±5 units) from 0 deg C to 50 deg C
- Abrasion resistance in the range of 50-65 cu.mm. TPR's abrasion resistance fall in the range of 150 – 300 cu.mm and TPU abrasion resistance fall in the range of 30 – 50 cu.mm
- Chemical resistance, resist a variety of fuels, industrial and consumer chemicals.
These attributes makes it a great material for a variety of applications including vibration absorption, electronic tags and door lock dumping pads. It is also available in variety of translucent colours. So for design engineers looking for the next level of durability and flexibility, may be the material of choice.

Modular Switches
compound and the electrical industry pairing up for cost effective, better flame retardency and chemical resistance product

The compound portfolio takes our best-engineered resins, such as Vinyl blend, and pushes their high performance to extremes.

Indian modular switch OEM's specializes in conception processing and precision cutting sub-contracting. Industry's over 50 years of know-how was gained by continuously investing in new technologies and, thereby, increasing its capacities of production. Modular switch OEM's sustains a wide product offering by creating products that add value - and which are dynamically able – to meet customer needs. They chose Shriram PolyTech Vinyl blend to match their innovation requirements in the design of top quality modular switches.

"We invest in products that add value to our products, so when Shriram PolyTech showed the versatility and durability of PVC blend from the portfolio, we knew we found a winning combination," says one of the renowned OEM.

"We invest in products that add value to our products, so when Shriram PolyTech showed the versatility and durability of Vinyl blend from the portfolio, we knew we found a winning combination," says one of the renowned OEM.

The industry opted for Vinyl blend for a number of reasons
- It combines the heat resistance desired for electrical switches with the stiffness and high modulus of Vinyl.
- High resistance against oil, immersion in ASTM oil no. 3 for 7 days at room temperature had minimal effect on volume swell and caused no decrease in tear strength.
- Toughness and Rigidity ensures high dimensional stability of the product along with long life.
- Highly weatherable compound: can withstand extreme weather conditions with excellent colour and impact retentions.
- Can be used in areas where the essential requirements of oil resistance, good flexibility, good compression set, and reasonable cost are required.
In addition to general purpose grade, form part of the polymer family which is designed to provide excellent features and opportunities to a wide range of applications.

Vinyl blend resins typically have outstanding properties for applications that require heat resistance, chemical resistance, toughness and electrical properties. They are widely used in an extensive range of injection molding and extrusion engineering applications, such as connectors, switches, thermal breaks and power tool housings.

can also be modified to improve specific properties by utilising glass fiber, heat stabilizers and impact modifiers. In essence, Vinyl blend offer
- Excellent chemical resistance
- High strength
- Good processability – high flow and fast cycling
- Flammability rating of UL 94 V-0 @ 0.76 mm
- Good dimensional stability
- Low thermal expansion
- Good electrical properties
The Vinyl blend is a powerful leap forward in engineering thermoplastics. After 50 years, Shriram PolyTech is still finding innovative ways to close the gap between extreme product design demands and extreme resin performance.

For Indian electrical industry Vinyl blends are a top choice for their modular switch.
