Polyisobutylene CAS# 9003-27-4

Polyisobutylene is composed of long-chain hydrocarbon formed by polymerization of isobutene, and is extremely stable under normal conditions. It is transparent non-noxious high-consistency semi-solid polymer free of impurities.
The physical properties of polyisobutene are very dependent on molecular weight. Polymers with average molecular weight (Mw) of about 15 000 are sticky viscous liquids whilst those with molecular weight of 100000-200000 are rubber-like, resembling unmilled crepe rubber.
