Cesa™ Stat Antistatic Additives
Cesa™ Stat Antistatic Additives control the buildup
of static charges in thermoplastic parts, enabling
them to dissipate by absorbing and ionizing
moisture from the air, which forms a conductive
path for surface static charges.
Cesa Stat Antistatic Additives can be combined with
other additives or colorants in a single Smartbatch™
concentrate for processing efficiency and ease.
Contact one of our experts to learn more
about how we can help you to use
antistatic additives.

Additive Buildup
Additives play an important role in enhancing PET properties, but they can also present a challenge during the recycling process.
To address these challenges, new additive technologies have been developed with recycling in mind.
In addition, the importance of simulating the mechanical recycling process to design new additive technologies cannot be overstated.

Cesa™ Fiber Additives
Antimicrobial Additives for Synthetic Fibers and Nonwovens
Bacteria and other microorganisms can cause
unpleasant odor, discoloration and even
degradation of surface qualities in textiles and
nonwovens.
The Cesa™ Fiber Additives portfolio
includes antimicrobial concentrates that help
prevent these problems by limiting the growth of
microorganisms.
The additive concentrates are highly
recommended for applications requiring long-term
protection in textiles made of PP, PET, and PA.
