US speciality chemicals producer Milliken (Spartanburg, South Carolina; www.millikenchemical.com) said it has expanded its portfolio of products for polypropylene recyclers with the launch of “DeltaFlow” viscosity modifiers designed to increase the melt flow rate of extruded and injection moulded rPP.
DeltaFlow is a solid concentrate offered as free-flowing pellets said to be dust-free and offer easy feeding and safe handling. The material allows for lower processing temperatures, which can enable converters to reduce cycle times, boost productivity and improve processability, the company noted, adding that the product enables rPP to replace virgin resin in many end-use applications, which can help a brand meet sustainability goals.
DeltaFlow is available in concentrations of 2, 5 and 10% and complements Milliken’s “DeltaMax” performance modifiers for PP.
