High molecular weight plasticizer and nucleating agent developed for use in engineering plastics such as polyester and polyamide resins.
Applications
Uniplex™ 810 is a high molecular weight plasticizer, and nucleating agent, having wide compatibility with a variety of polymers. Its low volatility and excellent heat resistance make it especially useful in engineering plastics, such as polyester and polyamide resins. Used at levels of 4 – 10 % on the weight of the PET resin, Uniplex™ 810 greatly reduces molding (processing) times. The product is not a typical plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
Uniplex™ 810 offers the advantages of:
- lowering processing cost
- enhancing impact resistance
- low vaporization
- improving mold releases
It is easily added to the PET resin in single or double screw extruders.
