Cimpact® 550 is used in plastics applications mainly for reinforcement in polyolefins especially where consistent color and whiteness are required, including in automotives and appliances. Cimpact® 550 could also be used for reinforcement in engineering thermoplastics or other high-performance plastics, and for anti-blocking of plastic films.
