Product description: TEGOPREN® 6846 is an organic modified siloxane based wax, especially designed to improve the processing and final performance of polyolefin. Application: TEGOPREN® 6846 is used as a semi-compatible slip and release agent for various end uses. Benefits: During the extrusion process TEGOPREN® 6846 improves the flow characteristics. This results in: - reduction of shear during the extrusion of polyolefin with low MFI
- reduction of amperage values, which means lower energy consumption
- higher throughput during the extrusion
- improved cycle time/less machine down time
TEGOPREN® 6846 combines the properties of the organic modification and the typical characteristics of a siloxane. This results in improved characteristics of the polymer:- smooth processing during down-stream application, especially during foam extrusion
- no negative impact on printability/sealability
- smoother surface of films can be easily deter-mined by lower COF values
- improved slip properties
