TRIEST EHP-0811, is a fat-soluble, biobased saturated monoester with low or no odor, formed by the reaction of 2-Ethyl Hexanol with palmitic acid, a biobased fatty acid. It has applications in many areas like cosmetics industry, lubricants and greases, adhesives, ink and paint industry.

TRIEST EHO-0821, is an unsaturated, biodiluting monoester with low or no odor, hydrophobic and highly biodegradable, with low or no odor, formed by the reaction of 2-ethyl hexanol and a vegetable-based C18-rich fatty acid. It has applications in many areas like polishes and waxes, ink and paint industry.

GrapheneBlack™ 3X is NanoXplore's slightly larger pristine few-layer-graphene designed for multi-functional performance improvements in a wide range of markets and technologies. GrapheneBlack can be used in thermoplastics, thermosets, concrete, coatings, lubricants, and rubbers and enables manufacturers to cost-effectively improve long term product performance.

K - STOFF T is a unique MPA for filled compounds, which offers excellent bonding, to filler & polymer with the enhanced flow & improved mechanical properties.

Santicizer® 141 is a fast-fusing, non-halogen, fire retardant plasticizer used in multiple polymer systems. This plasticizer is recommended for applications where there is a need to reduce the risk of fire. This versatile additive has FDA clearances making it an option for applications that involve indirect food contact. In PVC, Santicizer® 141 acts as a high solvating plasticizer, offering performance, faster fusion and high plasticizing efficiency. Santicizer® 141 is also used as a lubricant additive, hydraulic fluid, and rubber processing aid.

GrapheneBlack™ 0X is NanoXplore's slightly smaller pristine few-layer-graphene designed for multi-functional performance improvements in a wide range of markets and technologies. GrapheneBlack can be used in thermoplastics, thermosets, concrete, coatings, lubricants, and rubbers and enables manufacturers to cost-effectively improve long term product performance.

K- STOFF PYN is specially designed to reduce the water carry-over issue in a highly filled & high-speed raffia tape line.

Santicizer® 1462 is a modified alkyl aryl phosphate ester for flexible PVC products that must meet stringent flame retardancy standards. Santicizer® 1462 is specially recommended for plastisol applications where critical processing conditions must be combined with high fire-retardancy of the end product. In vinyl nitrile foams, Santicizer® 1462 imparts a significant level of fire retardancy and helps foamed products meet certain specified flammability performance criteria. Santicizer® 1462 also acts as a processing aid and contributes to excellent cell structure in chemically blown foams.

Polaid TPT is an effective nucleating dispersing agent, specially developed for talc filled & transparent application PE/ PP based antifibrillation masterbatches/ compounds.

Hot polymerized SBR 1009AF is used in spray applied adhesives, calendared products, and extruded mechanical goods where smoothness and controlled shrinkage are critical requirements.

Hot polymerized SBR 1009 is recommended for use in calendared products such as slab soling for footwear, and in extruded mechanical goods where smoothness and controlled shrinkage are critical requirements. It is also widely used in sealants and adhesives.

South Carolina Polymer 3525 is a high density oxidized polyethylene used in coating industries, overprint varnish, polishes, and inks to improve surface properties including scuff and mar resistance. This can also provide heat resistance in hot melt adhesives. In PVC processing, SCPG3525 can be used as a metal release agent and acts as fusion control for formulations and is good for aqueous emulsions & dispersions.

WellsAid - Processing Aids are designed to improve the melt processability and handling of high molecular weight polymers. They can also give finished articles improved esthetic properties by removing flow marks and die lines thereby improving the parts gloss and clarity.
