Capability

Improved Processing

A compounder and molder of automotive parts was processing their nylon at too high a temperature causing longer cycle times due to cooling and potential issues with stability of the polymer. They replaced their incumbent lubricant system with STRUKTOL® TR 063A which allowed them to reduce the temperature of their compounding and molding processes by almost 20°C, leading to more consistent compounding and faster molding cycle times. In addition, they reduced the tendency to see discoloration in the parts due to stability issues, maximizing the performance of their heat stabilizer package.

Capability

Optimized Melt Flow for Recycling

Struktol’s VMO Series is engineered to deliver rapid and precise melt flow index adjustments for compounders and processors. Our VMO modifiers optimize polypropylene (PP) processing and are compatible with PP containing up to 35% polyethylene, improving reliability and performance. Available in a range of activity grades, STRUKTOL® VMO Series provides tailored solutions for many different melt flow targets, with each grade maintaining a predictable dropping point between 74-86 degrees Celsius and a specific gravity of 0.98-1.0 for reliability across formulations.
