We can provide additive masterbatches based on many polymer systems such as ABS, ASA, EVA, PA (Nylon), PBT, PET, PE, PP, PS, SAN and universal carriers, and can develop appropriate solutions for bespoke applications.
We have a selection of standard additive masterbatches available from stock, including:
Antiblock - prevents films sticking together during and after processing
Antifog - maintains clarity of food packaging and agricultural films
Antioxidants – inhibits polymer oxidation (colour/polymer degradation, gels and black specks)
Antislip – increases coefficient of friction to prevent slip of stacked PE bags
Anti-scratch – improves scratch and abrasion resistance
Antistatic – gives mouldings a dust-free surface and prevents build-up of static charge
Blowing Agents – lower density to reduce part weight leading to lower costs, to create wood effects and also to prevent thick moulded sections from sinking
De-lustre – gloss reduction
De-nesting – prevents stacked mouldings sticking together during storage
Flame Retardants – offer varying degrees of fire resistance
Mould Release – prevents parts sticking in the mould
Process Aid – improves output and running conditions, removes die drool and improves surface finish while lowering energy costs
Nucleating Agent – improves cycle time, increases clarity and polymer crystallinity, foam nucleator
Paper-Like – creates paper-feel polymer film
Slip Agents – reduce coefficient of friction – often used in conjunction with antiblocks
UV Stabiliser/Absorbers – prolong life of part exposed to UV / packaging contents and also protect filled contents such as cosmetics and household cleaners from degrading
