Continued commitment to Viton® and Vamac®
DPE is committed to the continuing development and supply of Viton® fluoroelastomer and Vamac® ethylene acrylic elastomer (AEM) products. The recent announcement of the intention to exit the Hypalon® business does not impact other products in the DPE portfolio.
Customers and the marketplace can be assured of the continuing commitment of DPE to the development and supply of Viton® and Vamac®, and to supporting new applications for these leading elastomers.
The company recently introduced high viscosity Vamac® Ultra, offering true step-change improvements in processability, and longer functionality in demanding automotive applications such as hoses, dampers, boots, seals and gaskets.
