- Cost Reduction / Improved Performance
A compounder of glass fiber reinforced and impact modified polyamide compounds was able to improve mold filling of his product by 45 % (spiral flow test) using 0.5 % of CEVO®-process A-3100 instead of zinc stearate. The additive further improved the surface quality of the injection molded parts produced

- Use Level
- 0.3 – 0.7 %
- Recommended Application Areas
By the addition to the most different formulations long flow paths can be realized and injected parts themselves can be faster ejected. The use in filled or reinforced compounds improves, for example, the homogeneity of the fiber glass distribution, reduces the polyamide degradation and leads to an improved surface quality. In addition, damages by friction peaks can be avoided in sensitive formulations. We recommend to add amounts of 0.3 – 0.7 %.
