“When developing new materials, we pay particular attention to the conversion process,” he said. “Vestolen A 6060R is an example how we support converters to optimise their production process.”  www.sabic.com


At K2016, Songwon will showcase its antioxidants and UV stabilisers – including its


Teknor Apex says the low lubricity of its Sarlink 9156-02 for pipe seals makes them easier to fi t


range of One Pack Systems (OPS) − multicom- ponent, tailored blends of additives in pellet form. In response to increasing demand, the company


recently expanded global OPS manufacturing by with a new facility in Abu Dhabi. With an initial capacity of 7,000 tonnes/year – and designed for future expansion – the plant has identical production technology to Songwon’s two other plants in Greiz, Germany and Houston, USA. Songwon also has two manufacturing facilities in China. The fi rst, in Tangshan, produces thioester antioxi- dants for the local market and other key regions. The second facility, which is currently in the fi nal stages of construction, is for production of Songnox One Pack Systems. Located in Qingdao in eastern China, it is due to be fully operational in the third quarter of this year.  www.songwon.com


Struktol Company of America will exhibit its range of process additives for reclaimed/recycled plastics, and for polymer compounds that contain recycled content. Its Struktol RP 38 is a new, multi-functional package


that incorporates vis-breaking (viscosity reducing) technology with lubricant and odour control. It provides


for signifi cant viscosity reduction at low loading levels. The odour control portion of the product aids in reducing odors associated with the recycled polymer during and post processing. At the same time, RP 37 is designed to provide viscosity modifi cation and lubrica- tion in recycled PP compounds and resins that contain high levels of polyethylene contaminants. RP 17, a combination of lubricant and odour


neutralising mask, was originally designed for reducing or eliminating compounding and end-product odours in wood-plastic composites, and has now been modifi ed for use in other recycling applications, as well as for odour neutralisation in automotive interiors. Its TR 052 is a compatibiliser and blending aid that


helps to incorporate regrind/recycled product into a wide range of polymers. Processors can improve the physical properties and processability of compounds that have some level of recycled content. TR 052 has been shown to signifi cantly improve the processability and perfor- mance of mixed recycled streams used when separation of the resins is not done in advance. The additive compatibilises dissimilar polymer systems, allowing for expanded use of these mixed recycled streams.  www.struktol.com


Teknor Apex will introduce a thermoplastic vulcani- zate (TPV) elastomer for pipe seals, which offers specifi c advantages over thermoset rubber. Developed for use in seals for non-pressure water


and drain pipe, Sarlink 9156-02 provides physical properties that are almost identical to Sarlink 9156B – a ‘workhorse’ compound for pipe seals – but has around 16% of the coeffi cient of friction.


Does your pipe head have these features?


● Internal pipe cooling (IPC) ● Low heating power consumption ● Low back pressure ● Quick horizontal die change ● Low volume – short residence time ● Low pipe overweight ● Quick dismantling


Ask us for state of the art extrusion tools for mono- or multilayer pipe production, and cross heads for coating.
