MITO™ ACRE™ Corn-starch Based Additive
Categories:	Polymer; Renewable/Recycled Polymer
Material Notes:	MITO® Material Solutions' corn-starched based product, ACRE™, a renewable and sustainable additive, enhances the performance of plastics. ACRE™ promotes adhesion and improves flex, tensile, and impact properties. It is designed to integrate into existing polymers and manufacturing methods with variable loading options depending on polymer and desired performance. ACRE™ replaces non-renewable fillers and does not alter optical properties for added design flexibility. With ACRE™, plastics become lighter, stronger, and more durable, making it a sustainable choice for improved product performance. MITO® ACRE™ has been designed to seamlesslyintegrate into your manufacturing method: Shear Mixing Three Roll Milling Spray Applications ACRE™ loadings depend on polymer and desired performance. Thermal and Permeability properties will be added in the future. Information provided by Mito Materials
