AddWorks PPA 101 FG is a PFAS-free polymer processing aid for polyolefin extrusion that uses proprietary organic technology. In PE blown and cast films, it eliminates melt fracture (sharkskin) and prevents die build-up, offering a non-fluoropolymer alternative to the fluoropolymer-based PPAs traditionally used.

What would you need to evaluate or validate before switching from fluoropolymer-based PPAs to a PFAS-free option like this in your extrusion operations?

New additive supports PFAS-free polymer processing in polyolefin extrusion applications

This article was originally posted on Chemical Engineering.

AddWorks PPA 101 FG is a PFAS-free polymer processing aid (PPA) for polyolefin extrusion applications, based on this company’s proprietary organic material technology. In polyethylene (PE) blown and cast films, it solves melt fracture – commonly called sharkskin – and it prevents die build-up. For decades, fluoropolymer-based polymer processing aids have been the standard solution […]
