Polymer additives or additives are substances that are added in low percentages to various polymers to improve desired properties such as improving processability, increasing thermal resistance, increasing scratch resistance, impact, etc. The molecular weight of polymer additives<\/strong> is lower than that of a polymer, and the percentage of their use in the formulation is very small.<\/p>\n

During the process of extrusion or injection of raw materials, due to the high heat and the mechanism of shear stress created on the raw materials, the possibility of destruction and burning of the created polymer is very high, therefore, in order to prevent this situation and also to improve the processability, smoothing, non-sticking of the materials The melt is poured into the extruder, the mold, and the use of polymer additives is inevitable. The uses of these additives in different polymers such as polyamides, polyolefins and polyesters are various, and the percentage used will be different according to each of these components.<\/p>\n

How to choose polymer additives<\/h2>\n

If the production of masterbatch is a specialized work, then the production of polymer additives is a highly specialized matter because it has its own sensitivities and capabilities. One of the reasons for the sensitivity of this issue is the quality test of this product, which cannot be recognized through external components and only in advanced laboratories. It is possible. Considering the cost of these tests, which in turn affects the cost of production, the consumers of this additive tend to buy from reliable manufacturers who provide these products after conducting detailed tests with favorable quality and excellent stability. They offer the market. A quality polymer additive offers significant opportunities to improve the performance of polymer products.<\/p>\n

The amount of use of polymer additives<\/h3>\n

The consumption of polymer additives can vary based on the concentration of additives in the thermoplastic base and based on customer needs. The most important parameter, along with their quality, is the question of its economy. By choosing the right base of raw materials, special mixing plan and using the right equipment, manufacturers can produce a product based on the needs of the market and help the consumer to create the right added value. Some additives have a much higher price than raw materials, so most consumers may not be interested in using these additives at first glance, while the excessive use of some of these products can greatly increase production costs, depreciation. equipment and increase the final quality of the product.<\/p>\n

The proper use of polymer additives improves the characteristics of many polymer materials such as durability, hardness, clarity, preventing erosion, etc. Also, the properties of polymers can be significantly changed with suitable additives, and how to use polymer additives is different depending on the type of polymer and its application.<\/p>\n

Application of polymer additives<\/h3>\n

One of the most widely used industries using these additives is the plastic industry. In fact, by changing these materials, it is possible to produce various products such as tires, battery boxes, elastic bands, erasers, etc. Other industries using these additives are as follows<\/p>\n
