Greenflex EVA ML50
Greenflex ML50, produced by Versalis S.p.A. (ENI subsidiary, Italy), is a premium ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer designed for high-performance crosslinked foam applications. With 19% vinyl acetate, melt flow rate 2.5 g/10 min, density 0.941 g/cm³, Shore 89A/36D, and brittleness < -80°C, ML50 stands out for its exceptional elasticity, ultra-low temperature toughness, and reliable processability.
Greenflex ML50 is engineered for injection moulding, compounding, and extrusion, excelling in foamed and crosslinked sheet production for footwear, toys, shock absorbers, and gaskets. Its superior softness, flexibility, and resilience make it the material of choice for Indian footwear manufacturers, toy makers, elastomeric product designers, and industrial cushioning converters seeking consistent, EU-compliant, branded EVA with traceable Italian pedigree.
Functional Features & Technical Authority
- High Vinyl Acetate Content (19% VA): Delivers outstanding softness, flexibility, and elasticity-superior to standard 18% VA EVAs for comfort and rebound.
- Optimized for Foam Compounding: MFR 2.5 g/10 min enables uniform dispersal of crosslinkers, blowing agents, fillers, and pigments, supporting stable, high-quality foam cell structure.
- Ultra-Low-Temperature Toughness: Brittleness < –80°C ensures foamed products remain flexible and resilient in winter, freezer storage, and harsh climates-outperforming standard EVA grades.
- Soft Yet Mechanically Robust: Shore D 36 (soft feel) and flexural modulus 40 MPa strike the ideal balance between comfort and structural integrity for soles, pads, and elastomeric components.
- Superior Elasticity & Shock Absorption: High elasticity and low compression set make ML50 perfect for cushioning, impact absorption, and vibration damping in demanding footwear and industrial applications.
- Easy Processing: Readily processable on standard injection moulding, compounding, and extrusion equipment-no special modifications needed.
- Premium Italian Quality: Produced by Versalis (ENI), ISO-certified, with traceable manufacturing and consistent global supply.
- Food Contact & Toy Safety Compliance: EU and FDA-compliant for food contact; non-toxic, suitable for toys and child-contact products (certificates available upon request).
Applications
Foamed & Crosslinked Shoe Soles:
Greenflex ML50 is the gold standard for athletic and casual shoe midsoles, insoles, and comfort soles-delivering unmatched softness, elasticity, and cold-weather resilience. Its 19% VA content and soft Shore D 36 rating ensure every step is cushioned, flexible, and durable, even in extreme climates.
Toys, Dolls & Soft Play Products:
ML50’s high elasticity and non-toxicity make it ideal for soft foam toy bodies, dolls, puzzle mats, and playroom products. Products remain squeezable and safe in winter or cold storage, meeting strict child-safety and toy compliance standards.
Shock Absorbers & Vibration Damping:
Engineered for vibration dampening pads, shock-absorbing layers, elastomeric gaskets, and industrial seals, ML50 combines tensile yield (4.5 MPa) and flexural modulus (40 MPa) for reliable energy absorption and long-term durability.
General EVA Foam & Industrial Compounding:
Used in foam sheets, blocks, custom elastomeric compounds, and as a modifier resin to boost flexibility and impact resistance in blends for technical and industrial products.
Key Application Highlights:
- Athletic/casual shoe midsoles, insoles, comfort soles
- Toys, dolls, puzzle mats, soft playroom products
- Shock absorbers, vibration pads, elastomeric gaskets/seals
- Industrial foam sheets, blocks, custom compounds
