Polyscope, the world's leading manufacturer of styrene maleic anhydride (SMA) copolymers, has launched coupling agent and chain extender products to further expand its range of polymer compatibility technologies. New products will be marketed under the XIBOND ™ trademark. Polyscope's existing XERAN products have been integrated into the XIBOND ™ product line. The XIBOND ™ series is dedicated to meeting the market's needs for the optimization of polymer blends and alloy properties.
Outstanding in optimized PA / ABS and PC / ABS blends
With the addition of XIBOND ™, Polyscope's customers have benefited significantly from optimized performance of styrene polymers. In PA / ABS and PC / ABS blends, the XIBOND ™ compatibilizer effectively changes the interfacial tension of the material, making it more stable in high stress environments, and enhancing the phase adhesion of the material in the solid state. . As a result, the mechanical properties of the polymer blend are greatly improved.
Based on years of successful experience
Today, the demand for “customized” polymer solutions for specific applications is constantly emerging, and so is the demand for blend optimizers. Product developers are always looking for cost-effective solutions to improve the performance of current and future polymer blends and alloys. XIBOND ™ assists coupling and capacity expansion of unfilled grades and fillers (such as glass) at a low cost. Polyscope is continuously expanding its product portfolio to meet the market requirements for compatibility of other materials such as PPO, PS, PA and PLA with ABS blends / alloys.
In addition, XIBOND ™ series also introduced different models of chain extenders and coupling agents and melt flow enhancers to meet the needs of improving the performance of recycled materials in high-end applications in the post-industrial and post-consumer fields. In fiber-containing polymer blends, XIBOND ™ products as a coupling agent can improve the adhesion between fibers and polymers, and can increase adhesion by 50% without affecting other properties.
At the Chinaplas 2017 held in Guangzhou, Ferdi Faas, director of the business unit of Polyscope Polymers Pte Ltd, said: "As more and more applications require 'customized' polymer solutions, the market for blends The demand for optimizers is also increasing. The same is true of the development trend in the Chinese market. Through close cooperation with customers, our product development engineers are constantly researching how to provide solutions to customer challenges through product innovation. This is also Polyscope The genes of business development: innovative thinking, superior products. "
