PycnoPlast - Color Masterbatches for Tuning Biopolymer Functionalities

“Trust Pycnoplast for tuning a polymer resin to match your requirements”

Some of our recent activities are:

• Inclusions of natural fillers and fibers to tune biodegradation and product stiffness
• Increasing injection moulding speed of PBS to increase production efficiency
• Stimulation of polymer crystallization in PBAT/ PLA to improve mechanical product properties
• Replacement of environmentally unfriendly color additives by purely natural ingredients

Often a first trial with a basic polymer resins leads to disappointment. But do not stop there! This is exactly where Pycnoplast offers added value for you. It is in our nature to make it work by turning a resin into a smart compound recipe or develop a masterbatch type of add-on.

At Pycnoplast we have a broad experience in several specific solutions. We can modify resins to achieve certain functionalities for proper processing (for example flow stimulation) or to meet your  application requirements (for example heat stability or stiffness).

By application of different monomers or additives, selective addition of natural fillers PycnoPlast can develop more accessible biopolymers with performance that could match or even exceed that of the most widely used commodity plastics.
