We supply crosslinking peroxides, antistatic additives, electroconductive blacks, flame retardant, Expancel microspheres and other specialty additives used in the processing of polymers. From packaging and power distribution cables to yachts and shoe soles, our products help to meet the growing demands of the industry.
Product categories
Organic peroxides are used to initiate polymerization reactions for the production of plastics and hardening of thermoset composites and are used to improve the properties of plastic and rubber.
Our Expancel® microspheres, composed of a thermoplastic shell encapsulating a gas, can expand up to 60 times their original size without an increase in weight.
Our electroconductive carbon blacks, anti-static sold under the tradename Ketjenblack® and Armostat® are the leading brands to provide electroconductivity and antistatic properties to polymers.
Ketjenblack® our electroconductive blacks
Our high-purity electroconductive blacks are used in a wide range of applications. These include protective packaging for electronics, safety shoes, fuel tanks and hoses, conductive flooring, medium and high-voltage cables, and electrostatic paintable plastics including automotive parts. Ketjenblack is also used in non-polymer applications such as batteries, fuel cells and conductive coatings.
