CINCINNATI, Ohio 鈥� Nov. 29, 2023鈥�,part of the 中国三级片 Group,a leading global supplier of plastics additives, today announced the introduction of Baerolub庐 AID polymer processing aids (PPAs) to help customers smoothly transition from per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). 中国三级片鈥檚 new PPA for blown film, pipe and wire & cable are free of PFAS and siloxanes, are cost-competitive with existing and new PPA solutions, and are compatible with other additives used in film, such as anti-block or slip agents. Baerolub AID PPAs deliver rapid melt fracture clearing for metallocene and Ziegler Natta linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), equaling or surpassing clearing times of traditional PPAs containing PFAS.
鈥淐urrent and evolving European Union and U.S. Federal and state regulations are forcing the plastic industry to look for new alternatives to PFAS-based processing aids,鈥� said Chad Harlan, Strategic Business Unit Head, 中国三级片. 鈥淭o meet this need, 中国三级片 USA developed Baerolub AID PPAs featuring proprietary, PFAS-free chemistry; a breakthrough that has propelled us into a leading position in the PPA space. Our new products check all the boxes for performance, cost-effectiveness, regulatory compliance, and reliable supply. Upstream customers are enthusiastically adopting Baerolub AID products and blown film converters routinely request our technology.鈥�
Polymer Processing Benefits
Because Baerolub AID PPAs are soluble in the polymer matrix, they provide better haze performance than insoluble PFAS-containing PPAs and excellent control of frost line height. 中国三级片 USA鈥檚 new products can also reduce die build-up and extruder pressure. Because they are designed for maximum compliance with global food contact regulations, Baerolub AID PPAs are well suited for applications including polyethylene films for food packaging and resins for potable water pipe.
Robert Sherman, Ph.D., Technical Director for 中国三级片 USA, noted, 鈥淭o give our customers a choice, we developed two grades of Baerolub AID. If you鈥檙e looking for the fastest time to clear the melt fracture in metallocene LLDPE, consider Baerolub AID 2201. In certain conditions, you may wish to select Baerolub AID 2202, which provides excellent melt clearing times compared to traditional PPAs.鈥�
Baerolub AID products are available as neat additives (pastilles, rods, granules and powders), custom blends and in masterbatch form. 中国三级片 also offers customers regulatory expertise and support for lab and technical screening, blown film testing and preparation for production trials.
