PARALOID™ K-175P (Lubricating Processing Aid )

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

PARALOID™ K-175P processing aid is a polymeric external lubricant with unique features. It is appli­cable for all PVC products and can be used alone or, more often, in combination with other process­ing aids which promote fusion.

PARALOID™ K-175P procesing aid offers the following product benefits:

 • Prevention of sticking of PVC melt onto hot metals and prolongation of operation hours for production
 • Reduction of the level of conventional lubri­cant and minimizing plate-out
 • Excellent clarity and no migration, even though it is a lubricant
 • Higher output and improved flowability for production
 • Better surface finish

PARALOID™ KM-355P (Acrylic Impact Modifier)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

PARALOID™ KM-355P additive is an impact mod­ifier for PVC used in outdoor applications such as window frames, panels, siding, fences, pipes, fit-tings and injection-molded parts.

PARALOID™ KM-355P impact modifier offers the following benefits:

 • Excellent impact strength
 • Proven weatherability
 • High fusion promotion efficiency
 • Low post-extrusion shrinkage or reversion

IMPACT EFFICIENCY

PARALOID™ KM-355P impact modifier imparts excellent impact improvement both at room tem­perature and 0°C.

WINDOW FRAMES

One of the most advantageous applications for frames.

PARALOID™ K-125P (Acrylic Processing Aid)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

PARALOID™ K-125P additive is a general purpose processing aid for PVC used mainly in building applications, such as window frames, panels, sid­ing, fences, pipes, fittings, and injection-molded parts. It is also available for selected applications, in particular, PVC foam and deep-draw thermo­formed containers.

FUSION PROMOTION EFFICIENCY

PARALOID™ K-125P processing aid promotes and homogenizes PVC fusion drastically.

MELT FRACTURE

Unusual flow of molten PVC in die could cause melt fracture. PARALOID™ K-125P processing aid promotes and homogenizes PVC fusion, and it improves surface quality.

MELT STRENGTH ENHANCEMENT

One of the benefits of adding PARALOID™ K-125P processing aid is imparting sufficient melt strength for molten PVC compound.

Rohm and Haas Plastics Additives is a worldwide supplier of additives and acrylic resins used in a large variety of applications for Vinyl, polyester, polycarbonate and other engineering plastics or blends. Products from Rohm and Haas Plastics Additives impart significant performance attrib­utes like impact strength, clarity, chemical resist­ance, color retention, heat resistance, heat stability and weatherability. They also provide important processing benefits like greater output rates, melt strength and lubrication.

PARALOID™ BTA SERIES (MBS Impact Modifiers for PVC Film and Sheet)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

PARALOID BTA Series impact modifiers are appli­cable for film/sheet applications, especially:

 • PARALOID BTA-707 is for low crease-whiten-ing film/sheet applications, e.g. display boxes
 • PARALOID BTA-717 is for general purpose transparency film/sheet applications
 • PARALOID BTA-730 is for high impact trans-parent film/sheet applications
 • PARALOID BTA-751 is for opaque/translucent film/sheet applications, e.g. Christmas tree leaves

PARALOID BTA Series provide the following advantages over competitive products:

 • Spheroid-powder characteristics allow a free flowing powder and dust-free mixing
 • Faster fusion contributes to higher-output pro­duction
 • Higher impact efficiency allows dosage of MBS and gives cost-savings in formulation
 • An optimum combination of clarity and impact strength gives excellent quality, to appeal to consumers
