IncroMax™ PS
IncroMax™ PS friction reduction additive is specifically designed for PMMA and styrenics such as HIPS and GPPS. It allows for easier processing and improved mold release.
IncroMax™ PS additive migrates to the surface where it forms a thin lubricating layer, which reduces friction to improve mold release.
Guidelines for Use:
IncroMax™ PS internal additive can be incorporated into resin as supplied or via masterbatch / pre-blend. Experience has shown that simple manual mixing prior to processing will normally give an acceptable dispersion, though mechanical means are preferred.
