Polymers Processing aid (PPA)

Polymer Processing Aid Masterbatches also known as PPA reduces the die build-up in most of the processes and eliminates melt fracture in films. So PPA masterbatches help in increasing the process ability of plastics like Pipes, Tubes, and Polyethylene films. It also helps in increasing the throughput rates along with improvement quality. 

 This smooth interface created by PPA results in better flow through the die and prevents surface imperfections such as shark skin or flow marks, especially in high-speed film lines.

 The addition of PPA creates a thin layer of film between the metal parts and the molten material . It thus reduces the back pressure inside the extruder. Higher addition level of PPA masterbatch is recommended in the starting of the process which will clear most of the burned particles inside the extruder and stabilize the process. PPA dosage can be then reduced to 0.5-1% levels for smooth processing. Be sure to maintain a smaller addition throughout the entire extrusion run.

 PPA masterbatches allows higher throughputs even at lower temperatures thereby maintaining mechanical properties and surface gloss. Continuous use of POLYMER PROCESSING AID MASTERBATCHES can give long term benefits like lower wastage, low rejections and reduced barrel wear. 

 Our solutions also work effectively in combination with other performance additives like UV stabilizers for polymers and polyester masterbatches that help manufacturers achieve durable and visually appealing end products.
