IncroMax™ PS
by Cargill
IncroMax™ PS by Cargill acts as a processing aid and anti-scratch agent for styrenics. It provides mold release, scuff- and scratch resistance and surface quality enhancement. It migrates to the surface of the polymer where it forms a thin lubricating layer, which reduces the coefficient of friction between surfaces and reduces unwanted adhesion.
- It offers improved de-nesting and packing of preforms.
- It has a vegetable origin and can be dispersed evenly through the polymer in melt phase.
- It is easy to process and produces fewer rejected parts and less waste.
- It improves output rate, reduces temperature and extruder speeds in processing.
- IncroMax™ PS is suitable for use in PMMA and clear/opaque HIPS and GPPS.
- It is non-toxic and has no adverse effects on the physical properties of the polymer and reduces manufacturing noise.
- It is recommended for automotive-, houseware- and furniture plastics, cosmetics jars and bottles, food containers, trays, film production, and injection molding applications.
- It has a shelf life of 365 days.

Atmer™ 7002
by Cargill
Atmer™ 7002 by Cargill is a vegetable-based anti-static agent. It is a 50% concentrate in polypropylene that provides lubrication and mold release benefits. It allows for better dispersion and overcomes complications encountered when using additives in their normal physical forms.
- Concentrates are added to the process like other resins, allowing for the additives to migrate to the surface of the polymer where they interact with atmospheric moisture, reducing surface resistivity and allowing dissipation of static charge.
- It exhibits reduction of fuming/smoking in processing.
- It offers better distribution of additives in base polymer, effective dosing of additives and less volatiles in processing.
- Atmer™ 7002 is recommended for PP closures & caps and film applications.
- Recommended dosage level is 0.5-1.6% in injection molding and sheet extrusion.
- It has a shelf life of 730 days.
