Polymers

EKOLITE FLEX GTS B is manufactured from fully hydrogenated triglycerides. It is an anti-static agent effective in polymers (LDPE/LLDPE, HDPE, PP, PVC) and also functions as a mould release and process lubricant.

Brilliant BPP Series are inorganic phosphorescent pigments with long afterglow, recommended for applications requiring immediate afterglow with good duration. These pigments are very stable at high temperatures and are resistant to most chemicals.

Q-Cel® Lightweight series products have a density approximately one-fifth of most thermoset resins. On an equal weight basis, the Q-Cel® hollow spheres occupy about five times more volume than an equivalent weight of resin, which can reduce compound weight and cost. They can replace heavy fillers, such as calcium carbonate, talc and clays, thus lowering the weight of composite materials. Spheres have the lowest surface area of any filler type, thus the lowest resin demand. Lower viscosities are common, allowing less resin to be used, usually resulting in cost savings in many applications. Q-Cel® 6014® is recommended for castings applications with polyesters, urethanes, PVC plastisol, and other systems where low viscosity and low shear processing conditions are used.

Eversorb® VL3 is an excellent UV stabilizer especially for PVC. Eversorb® VL3 prevents degradation of PVC from light and weather, especially for discoloration from sunlight. It does not affect initial color of PVC. In general, it is recommended 0.1 to 1.2 wt% based on polymer weight.
