103 - PVC ADDITIVES AND AUXILIARY
RELEASING AGENT
- FUNCTION: Additive based on modified silicon, suitable to reduce the releasing strenght. Soluble in PVC paste as well as PU solution for dry process.
- ADVANTAGES: Significantly increases the use life of the release paper by reducing the peel-off strenght of the releasin action to separate the PU/PVC leather from the Casting Paper
- OUTLOOK: Viscous transparent liquid
THERMAL STABILIZER
- FUNCTION: Barium -Zinc based Stabilizer are widely used on pvc process to prevent thermal decomposition of PVC when it is subjected to high temperatures when passing through the different production methods
- ADVANTAGES: Provides protection of the molecular structure of PVC, preserving its physical and chemical qualities. Thermal stabilization prevents yellowing of transparent or white PVC, as well as prevents color change or deformation in pigmented PVC
- OUTLOOK: Viscous yellowish liquid / white dry powder
KICKER AGENT K-Zn
- FUNCTION: Potasium -Zinc based kicker agent is widely used on pvc process, in combination with Azodicarbonamide, as foaming helper to produce chemically foamed PVC
- ADVANTAGES: Every company has different machine and oven configurations, uses different Azodicarbonamide type, PVC resin and formulations. Kicker agent helps to adjust the foam speed and performance by addapting the PLASTISOL to the particular conditions in each company.
- OUTLOOK: Viscous yellowish liquid / white dry powder
ADC 7000 - AZODICARBONAMIDE
- FUNCTION: Azodicarbonamide is the additive par excellence for PVC chemical foams. The small particle size of ADC7000 makes it ideal for use in synthetic leather.
- ADVANTAGES: Easy to emusionify and easy to control the quantity added into every formulation. totally stable and reliable product that does not modify its performance over time, thus avoiding formulation readjustments or undesired foaming effects.
- OUTLOOK: Dry and fine yellow powder
THERMO-EXPANDABLE MICROCAPSULE
- FUNCTION: Additive specially designed to reach physical foaming effect into PVC as well as PU medium, through the micro-expansion of the capsules when exposed to high temperature
- ADVANTAGES: By adding this product to PU media, even and stable micro-foam effect as yangbuck or nobuck effect for finishing can be achieved. High physical strength on PVC foam can be achived
- OUTLOOK: Dry and fine white-yellowish powder
