Plasticizer for nylon simplifies production

Polyvel Inc. has developed a pelletized plasticizer masterbatch for commercial compounding into nylon 6. HP-N01 is 40% N-butyl benzene sulphonamide in nylon 6 carrier resin. The company says that HP-N01 pellets are easily blended with or co-metered with nylon pellets into an extruder. The pelletized product eliminates handling and exposure problems with this volatile liquid.

US-based Polyvel primarily focuses on liquid, low melting point, highly volatile, and heat sensitive polymer additives. The additive concentrate product lines include: antifogs, antistats, fragrances, slip additives, wetting agents, processing aids. mould releases, lubricants, peroxides and speciality additives.
