MATERIALS MODIFICATION WITH SILOXANE ADDITIVES

MULTIBASE™ thermoplastics additives contain high or ultra-high molecular weight siloxane, pre-dispersed and/or reacted in a range of polymer-carrier resins and specially engineered to deliver multiple benefits for greater design freedom and production efficiencies.

These easy-to-use pellets enable processing improvements for both the compound manufacturer and processor.

They can also extend the material properties of both thermoplastic compounds and finished components, depending on the masterbatch additive formulation and application requirements.

ADVANTAGES:

Enhance: Increases productivity in the extruder and the mold, while reducing energy demand, improving dispersion of pigments, mold release, and flow.

Extend: Create higher-performing thermoplastic compounds/components by extending surface aesthetics and physical properties.

Reinforce/Disperse: Because the siloxane helps to disperse reinforcing agents like glass fibers it can offer improvements in mechanical properties.
