Making it Easier to Develop Recyclable Materials
Use our Durastrength® and Clearstrength® modifiers to:
- Boost the recyclable content of applications using up to 100% recyclable PVC.
- Maximize cost efficiency with engineering polymers using up to 30% recyclable content.
- Design products for deck boards made of recycled materials.
- Stabilize the morphologies of complex engineering polymer blends such as polycarbonate (PC) and polyesters that include recyclable content.
Improving the Processability of Recyclable Resins in Your Manufacturing
Use our Plastistrength® acrylic processing aids to:
- Ensure good flowability of thermal-sensitive formulations that include recyclable content.
- Maintain good thermoformability of final recycled products.
Additives Designed Specifically for Biopolymers
Use our Biostrength® biopolymer impact modifiers to:
- Improve the performance of biopolymers such as polylactic acid (PLA).
- Strengthen the performance of biopolymers in packaging, thermoformed sheets, and injection molding applications.
