TEGO® PPA 0-2 is a technical wax especially formulated to be used as a PFAS replacement polymer processing aid in various film processes.
Typical Applications
TEGO® PPA 0-2 can be applied in various film processes, e.g. cast film, blown film and others. The additive is suitable for transparent as well as matte film applications.
TEGO® PPA 0-2 can be used in fiber spinning and challenging extrusion operations where a smooth surface appearance is expected, such as in pipe and profile extrusion.
TEGO® PPA 0-2 is a PFAS-free replacement for fluorine-based polymer processing aids (PPA) to prevent shark skin appearance and die drool built up during film manufacturing.
TEGO® PPA 0-2 acts also as an efficient dispersing additive for different pigments and fillers.

Benefits at a glance
The use of TEGO® PPA 0-2 in various film applications as polymer processing aid gives the following benefits
- Immediate effect after dosing, which allows a fast change of different materials or fast color changes
- Does not cause a coating of the rollers in cast film applications nor the metal dies in blown film applications resulting in less cleaning and maintenance work compared to other PPA technologies
- No thermal degradation
- No influence on printability or sealability
- No migration
- High gloss and no haze in transparent applications
- No corrosive degradation products
