Pelletized, ultra-fine rubber tougheners.


A line of affordable styrene-butadiene rubber impact modifiers derived mainly from recycled tires is newly available in pellet concentrate form. PolyDyne Concentrates from Lehigh Technologies LLC (Logical Link Control) See "LANs" under data link protocol.

, Naples, Fla., contain PolyDyne SBR SBR - Spectral Band Replication  fine and ultra-fine powders (74, 106, or 180 microns) blended with appropriate carrier resins and compatibilizers.

These concentrates can be added directly to extrusion or molding, the company says. Field tests indicate they work well in polyolefins, ABS, glass-reinforced nylon, PBT PBT Provider Backbone Transport (networking technology adding determinism to ethernet)

, TPOs, TPUs, and other TPEs. Also promising are early results with mineral-filled PP and nylon where PolyDyne appears to further boost dimensional stability dimensional stability,

 while minimizing loss of impact strength. These products have also attracted interest from processors using recycled materials.

PolyDyne recently acquired Germany's Microtec GmbH, a global leader in fine powderization technology. The acquisition opens new opportunities for PolyDyne, including the potential to offer near-nano-size rubber particles to enhance plastics' impact strength, elongation elongation, in astronomy, the angular distance between two points in the sky as measured from a third point. The elongation of a planet is usually measured as the angular distance from the sun to the planet as measured from the earth. , and abrasion resistance. Tel: (239) 593-9782 * PT Direct: 196RH
