PRODUCT BULLETIN Non-PFAS Polymer Process Aids for Extrusion in Polyolefins Cesa™ and Hiformer™ Non-PFAS Process Aids are formulated without the use of fluorochemicals. They can be used in the extrusion of polyethylene or polypropylene to reduce the friction between the molten polymer and metal, enabling the polymers to be extruded without melt fracture. These process aids do not contain siloxanes and are formulated so as not to negatively impact processing or final performance properties.

With complete visibility of performance and cost parameters across multiple color options, it is possible to evaluate and select the formulation that best meets the requirementsof a specific application. Save, review and manage your chosen formulations for future reference and production scale orders. With a passion for innovation and more than 40 years experience, this advanced thinking in specialist polymer additives and liquid colorants is now helping our expanding network of customers around the globe to prosper and grow.

During processing these longer fibers intertwine and align to form an internal fiber skeleton that strengthens the polymer to help carry and dissipate stress forces – greatly increasing strength and impact resistance. Long glass fiber composites start as continuous filaments of fiber, which we melt-impregnate with thermoplastic polymer in our pultrusion process to create a high performance bond. Our long glass fiber reinforced products range from 20-70% fiber content (by weight) across a variety of resin systems ranging from polypropylene to higher performance engineering polymers such as PEEK.

Engineered polymers and polymer composite materials meet these demands, offering increased mechanical performance and superior specific strength.  Article Enhance Electric Vehicle Battery Design and Performance Discover the advantages of using engineered polymers in EV battery applications.
