JONCRYL ADR-4300
JONCRYL ADR-4300
JONCRYL® ADR-4300 is a versatile chain extender/compatibilizer with high epoxy functionality. This allows for rapid reaction with condensation thermoplastics, resulting in higher molecular weight. It is a polymeric coupling agent that reacts with degraded polymers to restore the original molecular weight as well as IV (intrinsic viscosity) and melt viscosity.
This means low quality recycle can be upgraded or that good quality recycle can be treated more robustly.
JONCRYL ADR-4300 can be used during processing to increase the melt strength of polyesters or polyamide (nylon). This is useful in extrusion applications.
