Portland, OR -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/05/2017 -- Polyisobutylene (PIB) is a commercial polymer extensively utilized in multiple end user applications owing to its thermal stability, flexibility, and impermeability to gases. Moreover, polyisobutylene is utilized in the production of tubeless tires due to its capacity of holding air for longer time.
Polyisobutylene is also used for damp proofing and maintenance of roof membranes. In addition, polyisobutene increases the thickness of the lipid (oil) portion of cosmetics and personal care products. Furthermore, polyisobutylene offers chemical resistance and low permeability to air, moisture, and gases. It is often deployed in the production of certain medical packaging applications such as serum vials, injectable, saline bottles, and seals.
