Poly(isobutyl vinyl ether)

polymer

Poly(isobutyl vinyl ether) is a synthetic elastomeric polymer formed by polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether monomers, belonging to the vinyl ether polymer family. It exhibits low-temperature flexibility and is primarily used in adhesive formulations, sealants, and coatings where elasticity and flexibility are required. The material is valued in industries requiring pressure-sensitive adhesives and flexible bonding applications where alternatives like natural rubber or synthetic rubbers may lack the desired chemical compatibility or processing advantages.

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.
