Unfilled Extrusion Resins
Akulon resins are available with melt viscosities to suit all extrusion processes: barrier and coating film, tube and hose, monofilament, stock shapes. Akulon resins are characterized by:- consistent quality
- high purity
- for film applications, low gel contents.
Molding Resins
Suited to all engineering demands: - Unfilled low and medium viscosity grades
- Toughened unfilled grades
- Glass reinforced from 20-45% filled
- Low warpage reinforced grades
- Flame retardant; UL V0 rated and glow wire types
- Halogen free FR grades
- Blow moldable materials
- Laser markable resins
- Laser weldable, high burst pressure grades
- Toughened, reinforced resins
- High stiffness grades for metal replacement
Akulon Ultraflow resins have high flow with mechanical properties similar to standard materials. Exceptional flow allows: - productivity gains in molding
- lower built in stresses
- better surface appearance
- system cost reductions
