Epolene® E-43 by Westlake is a maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP) grade. Exhibits slip resistance in floor polish emulsions. Is compatible with many polymers, resins and natural & synthetic waxes. Because of the polarity and anhydride functionality, Epolene® E-43 is useful for laminating, as a Coupling agent and compatibilizer for PP blends with nylon or EVOH, and for enhancing the strength of composites that utilize reinforcements/fillers such as glass, talc, calcium carbonate, and metals. It is also an excellent pigment dispersion aid. Suitable for processing by compounding. Recommended for automotive and building & construction applications. Also used in emulsions and hot melt adhesives.
