PycnoPlast - Model Pycno 1260/1620 -Polymer Processing Aid

SHARE

Fields of application Improvement of production efficiency and product quality. Examples HDPE and LLDPE (PYCNO 1260) or PBAT, PBS, PLA (PYCNO 1620) based cast and blown films, pipes, tubes, wire and cables, blow moulding and general extrusion products Mode of action Reduces friction between polymer and metal. As a consequence the product surface quality is improved and processing (extrusion) window widened.

Potentially higher throughputs can be achieved when capacity is available (10% - 30%). For blow moulding: reduction of cycle time.
Lower extrusion temperature, reduction of energy consumption.
Reduction in surface defects and improvement of surface properties (gloss and appearance).
Improved gauge control, reduced melt-orientation, die-swell and melt-pressure.
Faster colour changes, reduction of waste and less production interruptions.
No blooming will appear on the surface of extruded parts; no change in printing and heat-sealing properties.
