Lubricants for Bioplastics, Bio-based Plasticizers, Release, Anti-blocking, Slip - Description
This material is made of polymer modifiers manufactured using renewable feedstocks for use in PLA, PHA, starch-based and other bio-polymers and hybrids as well as synthetic elastomers and PVC. These esters are USDA-certified as sourced from renewable raw material streams and/or are biodegradable according to ASTM-D6400.
They function as process aids as well as polymer and impact modifiers. They improve processing by reducing melt viscosity/temperature, energy consumption and brittleness. They improve impact resistance and extruder flow rates and throughputs, lengthening the product lifespan. Select products in this line have FDA and/or REACH acceptances.
