Flow-Enhancing Additive for PC and PC/ABS
CAI’s new ST-PA208 is designed to boost melt flow index, elongation, and improve dispersion and compatibility.
An innovative lubricant designed for PC and PC/ABS alloys is said to increase the melt flow index and elongation, and to improve dispersion and compatibility. Flow Improver ST-PA208t is the latest addition to the portfolio of specialty additives offered by CAI Performance Additives, the sole distributor in North America for a broad portfolio of high-performance additives produced by China’s Starbetter Chemical Materials.
ST-PA208 reportedly enables higher loading content and offers comprehensive performance that is much better than EBS (ethylene bis stearamide), silicone, Montan wax, and other traditional lubricants. The additive is finding wide use in PC, glass fiber/filler/fire retardant reinforced PC, and PC/ABS alloys.
