Polymer Processing Additive - T59110

Polymer Processing Additive-T59110 is a free-flowing fluoropolymer processing aid specially designed for use at very low levels to improve processing of thermoplastics. At the very low use levels (typically 200–1000 ppm) necessary to improve processing, it does not alter or detract from the physical properties associated with high strength plastics. PPA-T59110 improves extrusion processing of polyolefin and other thermoplastic resins, and can offer performance and cost benefits in a wide range of polymers. It is particularly useful at low levels in reducing extruder die build-up.

Key Features :
  • Reduces or eliminates die build-up.
  • Excellent thermal stability for high temperature processing.
  • Ideal for use in high viscosity.
  • High molecular weight polyolefins.
  • Lowers apparent melt viscosity.
  • Speeds colorant change.
  • Addition rate for end user very low levels.

Application :

PPA-T59110 lowers apparent melt viscosity and permits fabricators to use high viscosity, high molecular weight resins in many film, pipe and blow molding processes which otherwise could not be processed on available equipment.

PPA-T59110 reduces or eliminates melt fracture and can reduce extruder torque. Through optimization of the extrusion process, the use of PPA-T59110 may also allow for an increase in output during extrusion.

PPA-T59110 is effective at low use levels in reducing die build-up in many polymers including LLDPE, LDPE, HDPE, PP and other thermoplastic resins. This allows for longer defect-free run times and improved gauge uniformity in cast film and BOPP processes as well as reduced fiber breakage in monofilament and fiber processes, can be produce blow molded bottles, pipes and other HMW-HDPE articles with improved surface finish and quality.
