TEGOPREN® 6846 is an organic modified siloxane based wax, especially designed to improve the processing and final performance of polyolefin.
Typical Applications
TEGOPREN® 6846 is used as a semi-compatible slip and release agent for various end uses.
Benefits at a glance
During the extrusion process TEGOPREN® 6846 improves the flow characteristics. This results in
TEGOPREN® 6846 combines the properties of the organic modification and the typical characteristics of a siloxane. This results in improved characteristics of the polymer
- Reduction of shear during the extrusion of polyolefin with low MFI
- Reduction of amperage values, which means lower energy consumption
- Higher throughput during the extrusion
- Improved cycle time/less machine down time
TEGOPREN® 6846 combines the properties of the organic modification and the typical characteristics of a siloxane. This results in improved characteristics of the polymer
- Smooth processing during down-stream application, especially during foam extrusion
- No negative impact on printability/sealability
- Smoother surface of the molded item enhances better appearance
- Smoother surface of films can be easily determined by lower COF values
- Improved slip properties
