Improvement of Melt-Tension for Thermoplastics

Fluon® PTFE fibrillates easily by shear strength. Fluon® PTFE that has this fibrillation characteristic can improve the melt-tension of thermoplastics. Fluon®PTFE granular grades, CD grades and AD grades can be used for this application. CD grades are particularly suited because of their easy handling and good fibrillation ability. Generally 0.1-1.0 % of PTFE is added for matrix thermoplastics.
