- Use Level
- 1 to 10 Parts Per 1000 Resin
- Recommended Uses
Processing all Polyethylene, Polypropylene including TPO, TPE, TPV & TPU. Also for other resins where improved lubricity of the molded part, or reduced coefficient of friction is required. Will not interfere with bonding, painting, printing or plating. Each component in this formulation has been certified by our raw material suppliers as having direct USFDA approval for food contact.
- Application Method
General:
For best results, laboratory tests or pre-production trials should determine the optimum addition level. MoldWiz process aid additives are effective within a range of 1 to 10 parts per 1000 resin excluding reinforcements, pigments and fillers. A high amount of filler may require a higher percentage of process aid additive than the indicated maximum. Always start an evaluation at 5 parts per 1000 (0.5%). The additive may increase the MFI. Reduce the level of additive or reduce the process temperature to raise the resin viscosity and to eliminate screw slippage.
Mixing:
Dry blend the process aid additive by tumbling or use an additive dispenser to meter directly into the resin stream. Process aid additives may be compounded into the resin to make a master-batch.
