VISTAMAXX
Vistamaxx performance polymers are semi-crystalline copolymers with tunable amorphous content and are compatible with other polyolefinic materials.
Due to its unique polymer attributes (such as toughness, cling, sealability, softness, clarity, dispersion, adhesion, elasticity and flexibility), Vistamaxx can be used to create new possibilities for product innovation. These performance polymers can add value in end-product applications for industries such as automotive, building and construction, consumer, hygiene and packaging.
Characteristic
-
Excellent compatibility with PP and other polymers
- Versatility to blend Vistamaxx™specialty elastomerswith lower cost polyolefinsand tailor the blend property profile as required.
-
Flexibility/elasticity
- Increase flexibility and durability in tubing, hose, profiles, sheets and membranes with potential to replace higher cost materials.
-
Improved impact resistance, particularly at low temperatures
- Improved quality and durability of parts, e.g. food boxes, bottles, kitchen ware, and containers, boxes, crates during handling or used in low temperature environments such as warehouses.
-
Transparency
- Maintaining blend clarity while providing additionalfeatures like flexibility and better impact performance for attractive packaging.
-
Down Gauging
- Possibilities to reduce part thickness andweight as a Vistamaxx™specialtyelastomer/PP blend offers a lower density alternative to PET/PC/PVC in packaging application.
-
Stress-whitening
- Profiles, tubes, hinges which need bending won’t show any stresswhitening retaining color.
-
Soft/Comfort-touch Haptics
- Offer “nice-to-touch”and comfortable grip to consumer tools and appliance while providing good chemical resistance.
