Grafted Orevac® Industrial Application: Compounds


 

  • PP based  Composites

 

The addition of fillers to PP in order to improve mechanical strength (modulus), thermal properties like HDT (Heat Deflection Temperature) and Vicat is very well used.

Drawbacks are solved by improving the coupling at the interface between PP and fillers. This is obtained by introducing some grafted PP in the formulation.

 

Orevac® CA 100 is an efficient coupling agent in filled or reinforced PP compounds to improve:
- Filler / Matrix interfacial adhesion
- Overall cohesion of the material
- Tensile and impact properties of the compounds.

 

 

 

  • Wood Composites

 

The Orevac®  CA 100  shows an appropriate range of properties, like high reactivity, low viscosity, useful as a coupling agent between PP and wood fibers.

Main applications of wood polymer composites are decking for outdoor, planks, doors, profiles, windows and picture frames. 

 

 

  • PP Glass fiber compound

 

Orevac® CA 100 has a high efficiency as a coupling agent of glass fiber / PP due to:
- High MAH content giving a strong chemical adhesion
- High fluidity inducing a good wettability of glass fibers

- White colour

 

 

 

  • HFFR Compounds

 

Cables used in buildings, automotive and power networks are required to be more and more Halogen Free Flame Resistant (HFFR).
Mechanical performances can be improved by introducing Orevac® / Lotader® as a coupling agent between the polyolefins and the fillers.
