DOW Elvaloy™ Impact Modification of PBT and PET Polyester
Are you looking for impact modifiers for your PET or PBT polyester compounds? Entec Polymers supplies Dow Elvaloy™ and Elvaloy™ AC acrylate copolymers for impact modifying PET and PBT polyesters. Let’s us help you select the best impact modifier for your polyester compound!
Dow Elvaloy™ PTW and Elvaloy™ 4170 can achieve super-tough impact performance at room temperature as well as providing excellent cold temperature impact and are the highest performing impact modifiers for use in polyester compounds. The epoxy functionality in Elvaloy™ PTW and Elvaloy™ 4170 can also improve the hydrolysis resistance of polyester compounds.
Elvaloy™ AC acrylate copolymers are used as general-purpose impact modifiers which can also act as a processing aid to improve the flow properties of the final polyester compound. Blends of Elvaloy™ PTW (reactive modifier) and Elvaloy™ AC (non-reactive modifier) are often utilized to provide the best balance of impact performance, flow properties and cost.
