POE

polymer

POE (Polyolefin Elastomer) is a rubber-like polymer that combines the processing ease of polyolefins with elastomeric flexibility and resilience. It is widely used in automotive sealing systems, flexible tubing, impact-resistant films, and weather-resistant gaskets where the material must withstand thermal cycling and maintain elasticity across a broad temperature range. Engineers specify POE over rigid plastics or traditional rubbers when they need a balance of chemical resistance, low-temperature flexibility, processability via injection molding or extrusion, and cost-effectiveness in high-volume production.

Safety & Biocompatibility

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
