Pvc Processing Aid AC-175
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Provides excellent hot metal release characteristics, reducing sticking and plate-out, without affecting the clarity or compatibility of the vinyl (PVC) itself or of the finished parts.
USES
- Improve hot metal release of PVC during melt processing
- All methods of rigid PVC melt processing including calendering, extrusion, foam extrusion, and injection molding
- Reduce equipment downtime for cleaning
- Improve flow to edges of sheets and corners of profiles
- Provide good release to prevent tearing at such locations
- Improve surface tension for printing on sheet through reduction in waxy external lubricants
KEY BENEFITS
