Uniplex 810 is a high molecular weight plasticizer and nucleating agent developed for use in engineering plastics such as polyester and polyamide resins. Chemical composition: Polyethylene glycol dilaurate General properties and 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.Information provided by Lanxess. |
