PARALOID™ K-120N ER Acrylic Processing Aid
Acrylic processing aid polymer, in lower-dusting free-flowing powder form, that improves the melt processing characteristics of rigid and plasticized vinyl (PVC) compounds.
Uses:
- Specialty injection molding
- Vinyl applications that require critical rheological properties
- Blow-molding bottles
- Rigid and flexible calendered film
- Extruded construction products
- Blown or extruded vinyl film
- Packaging film
- Rigid containers
- Technical film
- Fence, deck and rail
- PVC plastics
- Siding
- Window frames/profiles
- Finished parts
- Foam modified for the industry standard of foamed PVC
- Used in cellular PVC to raise melt strength and impart lubricity during extrusion
- For use as an impact modifier for high output profile extrusion
- Foam core pipes
- Foam profile formulations
- Cellular vinyl sheet applications
Benefits:
- Clarity and excellent dispersion
- Shortened fusion time
- More homogenous melt
- Excellent melt strength and parison control
- Smooth, glossy surfaces free of surface imperfections
- Increased output rates and improved production efficiency
- Improves flow characteristics of vinyl compounds, resulting in fewer defects
- Improves processing of high-molecular-weight vinyl without significantly affecting its physical and chemical properties
- Compatible with all commonly used grades of vinyl resin
- Prevents shredding and significantly improves calendering
- Lower-dusting properties help to reduce safety hazards
- Imparts melt homogeneity to rigid vinyl, resulting in improved weld-line strength, mold cavity fill, and uniform gloss
- 25% efficiency improvement over standard process aids
- High dispersibility in PVC melt
- Excellent fusion promotion
- Outstanding melt strength enhancement
- Reduces sticking and plate-out without affecting the clarity or compatibility of the vinyl
- Reduce foam density and increase impact strength
- Multi-functional process aid incorporating lubricating properties with melt strength enhancement
- Low torque
- Fusion adapted to latest equipment
- High melt expansion
- Low density
- Low density
- Lower use cost
- Improved dosage efficiency compared to PARALOID™ K-400
- Excellent sheet uniformity
- Gelation rate adapted to latest equipment
- Low density foamed-PVC
- Faster fusion speed than peer grades
