Styrenic Block Copolymers (SBCs) are high-performance thermoplastic elastomers renowned for their flexibility, strength, and exceptional versatility. Comprising copolymers of styrene with butadiene, isoprene, or other elastomeric blocks, SBCs combine the rigid properties of polystyrene with the elasticity of rubber. These materials are primarily available as Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS), Styrene-Isoprene-Styrene (SIS), and Styrene-Ethylene-Butylene-Styrene (SEBS), each offering unique mechanical and thermal properties. SEBS, produced by hydrogenating SBS, is valued for its superior durability, weather resistance, and compatibility with a wide range of applications. SBCs are widely used in adhesives, footwear, automotive parts, medical devices, and coatings, owing to their excellent processability and performance enhancements.
