environmentally friendly solutions, such as energy saving, as well as meeting the needs of the circular economy with all its ramifications across the polyolefins industry,” Santamaria says. “In addi- tion, the incompatibility of nonitol-based clarifiers is a well-known industry problem. This incompatibility with other clarifiers causes downtime issues due to the thorough cleaning measures needed between production runs. A dedicated silo storage system is required, as well as careful separation of regrind, which adds to the problems not only for the PP manufacturer but also for the downstream user.” To meet the energy saving and
environmental requirements of the polyolefins industry, New Japan Chemical and NJC Europe have developed a new range of clarifiers that perform at lower temperatures, and which are fully compatible with existing clarifiers. This solves contamination problems for PP manu- facturers, masterbatch makers and converters.
The RiKAFAST EDX and RiKAFAST EDXP clarifiers have been developed in close collabora- tion with the company’s partners in the PP industry, where there is an ongoing shift towards higher MFR grades. This calls for clarifiers to perform at lower processing tem- peratures than standard grades, the company says. The new technology enables the clarifier and resin to form a solution at relatively low temperatures to yield good haze values and improved aesthetics, both in homopolymer and random copolymer polypropylene. Future clarifier developments at
NJC Europe will involve improve- ment in aesthetics and performance for high-end applications. The company is also working closely with auto- motive industry suppliers to develop a new product that will meet the sector’s high specifica- tions and cost requirements. “In a post Covid-19 market with a global
recession likely, the polypropylene industry will be
