Thermoplastics

Thanks to their versatility, thermoplastics are used in a variety of applications worldwide, from the automotive industry to electrical and electronics products and appliances, from the construction business to film and packaging. 

Dispersants for thermoplastics are used to improve process times and reduce dispersion time, producing fewer defects and reducing filter blockage by using color more efficiently. For industrial applications such as cables, food packaging or structural components, additives are used to improve flame retardancy, as processing aids for cost efficiency and as part of a formulating toolbox used for components in transportation.

Solplus™ Hyperdispersants for thermoplastics are dispersants that enable functional materials to be incorporated into thermoplastics faster and simpler, providing a broader formulating window to allow cost-effective solutions in a wide range of end uses. Our dispersant additives improve process times and reduce dispersion time, producing fewer defects and reducing filter blockage by using color more efficiently, and are effective at enabling higher loadings of functional fillers/flame retardants and masterbatch colorants.

Lubrizol continues to develop innovative thermoplastic dispersants to enable higher performing thermoplastics and engineering materials that meet the needs of today’s lightweighting transportation, wind energy and electronic applications.
