Among its offerings for K2007, additive producer Milliken Chemical will launch a new Hyperform NPH-20E grade nucleating agent that the company says "will make cost.-effective property modification of PE a first-time reality for converters, resin and masterbatch producers". Milliken says the new agent can optimise similar properties (productivity, quality, thermal expansion coefficient and mechanical) to the existing Hyperform product range.
Another product introduction by Milliken at K2007 will be a new Millad clarifying agent grade HX8000 for use in polypropylene. Here a new breakthrough level of haze reduction is claimed to have been achieved with NX8000 compared with existing clarifiers, together with other benefits such as good thermal properties, impact resistance and cost effectiveness. The enhanced performance of NX8000 will expand the potential of further substitution of inherently clear plastics and glass with PP, opening up "previously unexplored product areas".
