What material is this?

I know the white part is pvc. Despite google searches and no answer from eshopps, does anyone know what material the grey part is made of? I have both pvc cement and abs to pvc transition cement.

You don't really need to glue it. The grey hose friction fits well to a PVC stub and since it's a drain, the pressure is not high. I don't use these anymore, but when I did I just used a bandclamp to hold it on.
