POLYMER ADDITIVES

GENERAL INFORMATION

  Polymer additives can broadly be classified as polymer stabilizers or functional agents. Polymer stabilizers are essential to practical use, since they maintain the inherent properties, color, and other characteristics of plastics by preventing the oxidative degradation caused by high temperature during processing, and ultraviolet exposure during use. Functional additives, on the other hand, are added to further improvement the mechanical strength of plastics or impart new properties, such as flexibility or flame retardancy, thereby expanding the range of application of plastics and enhancing their commercial value.
