ACR Processing Aid
ACR 401 is a state-of-the-art acrylic processing aid designed to revolutionize your PVC manufacturing. Its unique copolymer structure, derived from methyl methacrylate and butyl acrylate, significantly enhances the melt strength and elasticity of PVC. This leads to improved surface finish and a more uniform product quality. By promoting plasticization and improving melt rheological properties, ACR 401 ensures smoother processing, reduced manufacturing defects, and superior end-product characteristics.
- Achieve better dispersion of additives into PVC, ensuring a more homogeneous melt for consistent product quality.
- Experience enhanced melt strength and viscoelasticity, crucial for successful extrusion and molding of complex shapes.
- Improve the surface finish and gloss of your PVC products, making them more appealing and marketable.
- Facilitate the creation of uniform cell structures in foamed products by stabilizing microcells generated by blowing agents, leading to lower density and higher strength.
Key Advantages
Enhanced Plasticization
ACR 401 promotes efficient plasticization of PVC materials, enabling lower processing temperatures and improving overall processing stability, thus supporting low temperature plasticizing PVC applications.
Superior Melt Properties
The aid significantly boosts melt strength and elasticity, which is critical for applications like PVC pipe extrusion and complex profile manufacturing, directly contributing to improve PVC melt strength.
Improved Product Quality
By enabling better dispersion of other additives and stabilizing microcells, it helps achieve superior surface quality and uniformity, vital for foamed PVC products and high-quality finishes.
Key Applications
PVC Pipes & Fittings
Utilize ACR 401 to ensure excellent melt fluidity and strength for robust and precisely formed PVC pipes and fittings, facilitating easier manufacturing processes.
PVC Profiles & Panels
Enhance the dimensional stability and surface quality of PVC profiles and panels, making them ideal for construction and architectural applications.
Foamed PVC Products
Achieve uniform cell structures and reduced density in foam boards, foam profiles, and other foamed PVC products, leading to lightweight yet strong materials.
Wood-Plastic Composites (WPC)
Improve the processing characteristics and integrity of WPC flooring and profiles by enhancing melt strength and dispersion of components.
