CACOLIN®
Pelletized masterbatches and compounds with calcium carbonate (from 70 to 82%) and virgin polymers (PE, PP, PS), for the Extrusion, Thermoforming and Injection industries.
CACOLIN® can represent 10% to 50% of the final product formulation.
CACOLIN® may be used in the manufacturing of a multitude of products varying from the finest plastic films to thicker materials: garbage bags, agricultural films, co-extruded plastic bottles, raffia, pipes, panels, garden furniture, profiles, flooring…Benefits
Enhanced productivity
- Savings on raw material expenses thanks to reduced formulation costs
- Improved thermal conductivity and accelerated cooling times for faster cycles
- Decreased energy consumption
- Better homogeneity of the melt
- Increased machine output
- Better stability of the extrusion bubble
- Lower shrinkage in thermoforming and injection applications
- Anti-blocking action
Improved quality
- Better impact resistance (Dart Drop)
- Enhanced tear propagation resistance (Elmendorf)
- Greater stiffness
- Greater dimensional stability
- Lower sealing temperatures
- Possibility of down-gauging
- Improved printability
Environmental protection
- Formulation recipe with a higher percentage of environment-friendly mineral fillers (up to 82%)
- Reduction of CO2 footprint with mineral fillers as partial replacement of polymers provided by the oil industry
- Decreased energy consumption
