Additional Butyl applications
Life is butyl-ful. Hoses, windows glazing, engine mounts, train rail pads, protection gloves, inflatable dams, adhesives & sealants, roofing and
waterproofing membranes or even balls and shoe soles. Butyl rubber can be used in a variety of applications encountered in daily life.
At ExxonMobil, we produce an extensive portfolio of butyl and halobutyl rubber grades: whether your priority is on impermeability, damping,
aging and fatigue resistance - or on even all of them - we provide you with multiple solutions while making the most suitable choice meeting your
specific application requirements.
