GMS 2004E are additive masterbatch concentrates, available in a uniform pelletized shape, that offer prevention against cell collapse and cell stabilization in PE and LDPE microcellular foam. A major additional feature is protection against static build-up on foam parts during and post extrusion, and especially during the take-off of foamed sheet. GMS is typically offered as GMS-2004, a 20% concentrate of the GMS additive in a LDPE carrier. Other GMS additive levels, such as 10% to 40%, are available upon special request. The usage level of GMS-2004 typically falls within the range of 2 to 10%, depending upon the application.
