Additives for Composites & Plastics
Polyolefins, engineered plastics, glass-fibre composites and mineral-filled systems: low-energy, chemically indifferent or highly filled substrates.
Interfacial chemistry for the hardest substrates and highest filler loadings.
What makes this sector difficult
Adhesion to untreated PP and PE
Filler-resin debonding in composites
Wetting of high-viscosity filled resin
Migration and compatibility in plasticised systems
Additive families for Composites & Plastics
Wetting Agents
Substrate wetting additives that lower surface tension so the coating reliably wets low-energy and contaminated surfaces without dewetting, edge retraction or craters.
Adhesion Promoters
Adhesion promoters, chlorinated polyolefins and flash-rust inhibitors for durable bonding on plastics, metals, glass fibre and composite assemblies.
Functional Additives
Coupling agents, reactive silicones and other specialty functional additives for interfacial bonding, permanent modification and formulation problems outside the core families.
