Abstract

The present invention relates to improved elastomeric blend compositions for injection molding and extrusion application having improved compression set, weathering stability and physical properties, wherein the improved elastomeric compositions include minimally a metal neutralized sulfonated EPDM terpolymer, a non-polar process oil, an inorganic filler, and a carbon black at critically selected concentration levels. These blend compositions can be readily processed due to their superior rheological properties on conventional plastic fabrication equipment, especially on low pressure injection molding equipment into elastomeric articles having excellent physical properties and desirable rubbery characteristics.
