MagIQ™ Nonwoven Electret Additives for High-efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) Filters The nonwoven electret additives are necessary for the manufacture of polypropylene meltblown nonwoven, used to make fresh air system filters with long-lasting filtration properties. This requires the addition of a specific additive to the masterbatch prior to the meltblown stage, followed by a process known as hydro electret charging. By introducing additives with charge storage properties, “charge traps” are created.

In addition, the MIC process avoids VOC emissions associated with painting. Smartbatch™ FX for Paint Replacement is a combination of color and additive concentrates that help manufacturers replace paint and meet performance requirements for a variety of applications.

If a spring fails due to fatigue, the effect on the conveyor can be devastating – leading to a cascading failure of additional springs as they take on increased, unintended loads. THE IMPACT Not only did the Gordon Composites vibratory springs outperform the company’s originally specified spring components, they provided a number of additional benefits: Ready-to-install springs reduced labor and simplified installation Unlike alternative springs, Gordon Composites springs are factory machined to the required size and pre- drilled for a significant reduction in cutting and drilling processes and allowing valuable labor time to be allocated elsewhere.

This often causes additional damage to the motor’s lower unit, costing up to several thousand dollars to repair. The addition of a toughening agent to the long fiber composite provided improved vibration damping, according to Stahl.

Smartbatch™ Fabric FX Color and Additives Enhance Perceived Value with Look of Fabric Smartbatch™ Fabric FX color and additive concentrates from Avient are a hassle-free means for manufacturers to turn plain, smooth polymer surfaces into those that mimic the soft appearance of textile.

ColorMatrix™ Lactra™ SX Light Blocking Additive High-performance, visible light blocking technology for extended shelf life, UHT dairy PET packaging PRODUCT BULLETIN PRODUCT DESCRIPTION ColorMatrix™ Lactra™ SX Light Blocking Additive is a solid masterbatch additive that, when added to PET to make monolayer bottles, provides high-performance light blocking technology and protection for liquid dairy contents. This additive helps PET packaging to protect longer shelf life products, especially ultra-high temperature (UHT) liquid dairy products, from visible-light induced oxidation due to ambient storage conditions. Superior to capital-intensive multilayer preforms, the light blocking additive can easily be added to PET using a single-stage process for monolayer bottles, resulting in lower machinery costs and no loss in light blocking performance.

CASE STUDY: EXCELITE™ IM CHEMICAL FOAMING ADDITIVES THE CHALLENGE With more major OEMs introducing lightweighting initiatives, the use of chemical foaming additives (CFAs) is becoming more common among automotive injection molders. This offered significant improvement in dispersion and dimensional stability, and an additional 2% density reduction, lowering final part weight. Dispersion and performance of the additive was critical to success.
