Meeting EU PPWR requirements with PFAS-free processing aids

BAEROLUB AID represents a step forward in replacing PFAS-classified PPAs in polymer processing. This additive family is formulated entirely without PFAS, PEG, or siloxanes and was developed to meet demanding processing needs while ensuring full regulatory compliance, particularly in the light of the upcoming EU PPWR requirements.

 

Key benefits:

 

  • Completely free of PFAS, PEG and Siloxane

     

  • Rapid elimination of melt fracture (short “time to clear”)

     

  • Reliable suppression of die lip buildup and residue formation

     

  • Comprehensive global food contact regulatory compliance

     

  • Sustainable raw material design and global availability

     

The product range includes powders, pastilles, granules, and masterbatches that enable safe, clean, and efficient dosing.

Boosting recycled polyolefin performance

With BAEROPOL T-Blends, Baerlocher offers a powerful solution for improving the performance and consistency of recycled polymers across polyolefin applications. The blend is designed to enhance mechanical properties and processing stability, which are key requirements for achieving higher circularity at polymer converters.

 

Highlights of BAEROPOL T-Blend:

 

  • Improved process stability and quality of recycled polyolefins

     

  • Suppressing gel and black speck formation

     

  • Enhanced mechanical properties and batch-to-batch processing consistency

     

  • Neutralizing acids to minimize corrosive wear

     

  • 100% active substance in a dust free pastilles form

 

Commitment to circularity and compliance

 

Both BAEROLUB AID and BAEROPOL T-Blend underscore Baerlocher’s commitment to developing sustainable, regulation compliant, and performance driven additive solutions.
