Functionalised polypropylene to be used as compatibiliser for polymer blends or coupling agent for glass fiber, wood flour, natural fibers, multilayer films, aluminum foils, or mineral filled polypropylene. Examples: Compatibilising short-and long glass fibers and PP applications such as automotive applications (instrument panel carrier, front-end, door modules, etc.) and Wood filled polymer composites. Mode of action and advantages: PRIEX® 20093 is a polypropylene, grafted with a high content of maleic anhydride. The grafted maleic anhydride introduces polarity to the polymer achieving compatibility between polyolefins and more polar polymers like EVOH. Advantages: Excellent mechanical properties, good cost / performance; Ultra low smell, low VOC and emissions; Excellent coupling agent for short and long glass filled polyolefins providing enhanced physical, mechanical and thermal properties; Excellent coupling agent for natural fiber reinforced polymer composites or wood flour reinforced polymer composites; Free flowing pellets; and Safe and easy handling. Food contact: PRIEX® 20093 composition meets the requirements of Commission Directive 2002/72/EC and further amendments. Former Addcomp product line, acquired by BYK. |
