Atmer™ 7306
Atmer™ 7306 concentrate is an effective anti-static agent in polypropylene, suitable for injection molding and providing beneficial side effects such as lubrication and mold release. It also has wide food contact approvals.
Using a concentrate allows for better dispersion and overcomes complications encountered when using additives in their normal physical forms.
Concentrates are added to the process like other resins. After cooling, the additives migrate to the surface of the polymer where they interact with atmospheric moisture, reducing surface resistivity and allowing dissipation of static charge.
Guidelines for Use:
Atmer™ 7306 internal additive should be added to the melt phase during processing. Experience has shown that simple manual mixing prior to processing will normally give an acceptable dispersion though, mechanical means are preferred.
Typical addition levels are 0.5 - 1.8% in injection molding and sheet extrusion.
