Improving fibre dispersion

Incorporation of fibres into polymeric compounds can be a challenge. The structure of the fibres can make the “wetting“ of these fibres, by the compound, quite difficult, as fibres often remain floating on top of the compound and take a
long time to incorporate.

By dry-blending fibres with Sidistar^® the incorporation is made a lot easier
and at the same time the spherical particles give a “ball bearing”
functionality, improving the process ability of the final compound. This
results in faster mixing, better anisotropic behavior, improved process ability
and improved product surface finish.
