Benefits at a glance
TEGOPREN® 5895 can be used as surface modifier and shows the following benefits
- Easier processing and higher throughput in extrusion processes
- Higher surface quality with less abrasion of the resulting profiles
- Extruded profiles may results with an adjustable gloss
- Especially inorganic pigments will get more hydrophobic and more easy to disperse in thermoplastics
