Plastic PPA Masterbatch

Product Description

These polymer process aid (PPA) masterbatches are based on fluoropolymers/fluoroelastomers used primarily in polyolefin extrusion processes. Extruder walls and die regions are coated with them as they migrate from the polymer melt, providing a lubricating effect. In this way, the polymer melt at the die exit is less stressed, and the shark skin effect is less likely to occur.

Features

• Enhance gloss and surface finish
• Decrease polymer gel content in the product

 Advantages

• Increase productivity by eliminating die buildup and reducing stoppages for die cleaning
• Reduce back pressure
• Speed up the extrusion process without melting, and so increase output
• Cut down on the amount of material and time required for colour changes
• Cut energy costs by reducing processing temperature
• Improve gloss and surface finish
• Decrease polymer gels in the product

 Applications

• Mulch Film
• PE Film
• Injection Moulding
• Blow Moulding
• Carry Bag
• FIBC/Jumbo Bag
• Woven Sack
• Non-Woven
