How to solve problems linked with pigments nucleating polypropylene?

  Market: Packaging, automotive parts, lawn furniture, appliance part
Polymer: Polypropylene (PP)

   Key performances:
  
  • Excellent processing speed and productivity
  • Product quality enhanced through improved dimensional stability, isotropic shrinkage and physical property balance
  • Physical and thermal properties of polypropylene improved

  • Used with polypropylene, certain pigments are known to cause warpage issues due to anisotropic shrinkage properties. As a result, processing conditions must be adjusted to each one to produce identical parts containing differents pigments.


    Hyperform™ HPN-68L use pigment-levelling effect decreasing warpage risk
     
    Hyperform™ HPN-68L is the first hyper nucleating agent and promotes more isotropic shrinkage, which reduces the potential for part warpage. It allows for the fastest processing in molding and extrusion processes, while providing the same physical property improvements as traditional nucleating agents .

    Mode of action

    Hyperform™ HPN-68L has the propertie to highly increase the crystallisation rate of polypropylene resin. By influencing this process characteristic, this hyper nucleating agent also affect the differential shrinkage.

    Action of Hyperform™ HPN-68L on pigment processing

    The addition of a hyper nucleating agent (HPN-68L) to various pigmented formulations makes the crystallization temperature and shrinkage performance of the pigments much more consistent.
