COMMON APPLICATIONS
Where is EVA used?
01
02Footwear
Midsoles, insoles and components requiring comfort and recovery.
03Compounds
Modified formulations and blends for specific applications.
GRADES AND SELECTION CRITERIA
EVA — VA content and performance
Variants to distinguish
Low VACloser to PE in stiffness and general behaviour.
Medium VAA balance of flexibility, elasticity and processability for film, polymer blending and other applications.
High VAGreater flexibility, compatibility and performance in adhesives, foams and speciality formulations.
Foams / footwearSelection requires reviewing density, expansion, crosslinking, hardness and recovery.
What we review before proposing a grade
- VA content
- MFI
- foaming / crosslinking
- elasticity and hardness
- adhesion / compatibility
The appropriate product is defined by application and process, not only by VA content.
