When it comes to improving the impact resistance and overall performance of plastics, Shine Polymer offers an innovative solution – Shinepoly® LP2088 modifier. As a leading provider of high-quality additives, Shine Polymer has developed LP2088, which features a crosslinked silicone and butyl-acylate copolymer core with a grafted poly-methyl methacrylate shell. LP2088 provides superior low temperature impact performance, thermal stability, and hydrolytic resistance while simultaneously minimizing the impact on flame retardant performance in polycarbonate (PC) materials. This article explores the benefits and applications of Shinepoly® LP2088 as an impact modifier for plastics.
What are Impact Modifiers for Plastics and Shinepoly® LP2088?
Impact modifiers for plastics are substances added to improve the toughness and impact resistance of plastic materials. Shinepoly® LP2088 is an advanced impact modifier developed by Shine Polymer. It features a unique structure consisting of a crosslinked silicone and butyl-acylate copolymer core with a grafted poly-methyl methacrylate shell, offering exceptional properties for enhancing plastic performance.
Superior Low Temperature Impact Performance
One of the key advantages of Shinepoly® LP2088 is its ability to provide superior low temperature impact performance. When incorporated into polycarbonate and PC blends with polyesters and ABS, LP2088 significantly improves the material’s toughness, allowing it to withstand impact even at low temperatures. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where excellent impact resistance is required, particularly in environments with fluctuating temperatures.
Thermal Stability and Hydrolytic Resistance
In addition to its impact-enhancing properties, Shinepoly® LP2088 boasts excellent thermal stability and hydrolytic resistance. These qualities ensure that the plastic material remains structurally sound and maintains its impact resistance under various temperature conditions and exposure to moisture or water. This makes LP2088 an ideal choice for applications where durability is essential.
Minimal Impact on Flame Retardant Performance
Shinepoly® LP2088 is designed to have minimal effects on the flame retardant performance of polycarbonate materials. This means that when LP2088 is incorporated into PC compounds, it maintains the material’s flame retardant properties while simultaneously improving impact resistance. This combination of enhanced performance and flame retardancy makes LP2088 a valuable choice for applications that require both safety and resilience.
Conclusion
Shinepoly® LP2088 is an exceptional impact modifier for plastics developed by Shine Polymer. Its unique structure and composition offer superior low temperature impact performance, thermal stability, and hydrolytic resistance. With minimal impact on flame retardant properties, LP2088 ensures the safety and resilience of polycarbonate materials. Its recommended applications include PC and PC blends with polyesters and ABS, where superior impact performance and excellent colorability are essential.
