Kraton G1651 H is a clear, linear copolymer based on styrene and ethylene/butylene with a polystyrene content of 33%. It is supplied
from North America in the physical form identified below.
Kraton G1651 HU - supplied as an undusted powder
Kraton G1651 HS - supplied as a dusted powder
Kraton G1651 H is used as a base material for themoplastic elastomer (TPE) compound formulations for a variety of applications. It is
also used as a modifier of thermoplastics and bitumen. The inherent stability of SEBS polymers suggests the use of G1651 H in
applications that must withstand weathering and high processing temperatures.
