XIBOND™ 250

XIBOND™ 250 by aurorium is a styrene and maleic anhydride random copolymer-based viscosity modifier, surface modifier, compatibilizer, adhesion promoter, extender and coupling agent. Compatibilizer optimizes the interfacial tension and morphology against high stresses.

• The viscosity modification lowers the molding temperature and provides a better surface appearance.
• Chain extender connects polymer chains together to raise the molecular weight, melt strength, processability, flow properties and thickness.
• Surface modifier changes the polarity of a product leading to a different surface tension of the polymer matrix and modifies the adhesion properties of the polymer.
• As a coupling agent it provides low viscosity, improved creep and tensile properties.
• It is designed to improve the blend morphology of specific polymer blends.
XIBOND™ 250 can be processed using extrusion in all types of regular polymer processing equipment.
• It is compatible with acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) resins.
• It is recommended to use twin screw extruders with a mild screw configuration and vacuum degassing facility for good dispersion in styrenic polymer.
• Recommended dosage level is 1-5%.
