EXCEREX™ Olefin Oligomer


Introduction
Characteristics
Applications

 

EXCEREX™ is a high performance polymer processing aid. It is an innovative olefin oligomer, with a narrow molecular weight distribution, manufactured with Mitsui Chemical's leading edge metallocene catalysis technology. EXCEREX Olefin Oligomer acts to reduce torque in the extruder and thereby allows for an increase in screw speed and simultaneously permits operating at a lower barrel temperature. The end result is increased output, reduced heat defects (scorching) and shortened cooling cycles while maintaining finished product properties. All of this is achieved with only a small amount of EXCEREX added as a dry blend to your resin feed.

The use of conventional polymer processing aids with low molecular weight components can cause stickiness due to their tendency to bleed out and thus contaminate the surface of molded products. EXCEREX solves these problems. Click here to view our grade offerings.
