FLAME RETARDANT FOR PLASTICS

INTRODUCING NEWOSTAT® INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL ANTISTATS FOR PLASTIC Everybody is familiar with electrostatic discharge. It becomes visible, and especially perceptible, when walking over a nonconductive floor, then touching a door handle and getting “a shock.” Such discharges are not only unpleasant, but in many sectors are even dangerous. Antistatic agents are used to avoid this problem and thus make both the manufacture and the use of plastic products safer. However, antistats can also contribute an additional positive effect. With NEWOSTAT® antistatic agents, the tendency of many plastics to attract dirt can be markedly reduced.

In many plastic systems, such as elastic PVC floor coverings, a wide variety of Incorporated inorganic fillers. However, these inorganic additives do not show any significant tendency to be incorporated into the liquid constituents of a plastisol. Without suitable additives, this is practically impossible. Provides for an optimal distribution of the filler NEWOS for the process step of dispersing innovative and market-proven process aids under the name NEWOTEC.

INTRODUCING NEWOLAN® NEWOLAN®- rheology additives – Products that make coating easier Many important plastics accrue during manufacture as fine particulate powders. It is often difficult to produce sheeting from them on a supporting material for example for floor coverings. Therefore, before mechanical shaping as a surface can occur, these powders must first be converted into a flowable or spreadable paste with a fluid medium. Such pastes are called plastisols. In the process, rheology additives optimally adapt the flow behavior (rheology) of the PVC pastes to the process parameters during sheeting manufacture. Under the brand name NEWOLAN®, NEWOS offers innovative and market-tested rheology additives that can be optimized to your requirements at any time.
