Features Of Arkema Lotader AX8700 Toughener Compatibilizer

  1. Enhanced impact resistance in polyolefin-based blends without compromising stiffness.

  2. Effective compatibilization between non-polar polyolefins (e.g., PP, PE) and polar polymers or fillers (e.g., PA, EVOH, glass fiber).

  3. Low-melt-viscosity grade enabling excellent processability in extrusion and injection molding.

  4. Functionalized with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), providing reactive anchoring sites for covalent bond formation at interfaces.

  5. Improved interfacial adhesion leading to superior tensile strength and elongation at break in multiphase systems.

Typical Applications Of Arkema Lotader AX8700 Toughener Compatibilizer

  1. Automotive interior and exterior components (e.g., bumpers, dashboards, door panels).

  2. Packaging multilayer films requiring high barrier performance and toughness (e.g., PP/PA/EVOH structures).

  3. Engineering plastic compounds for industrial parts subjected to mechanical stress and thermal cycling.

  4. Recycled polyolefin upcycling—improving compatibility and mechanical properties of post-consumer PP/PE blends.

  5. Overmolding applications where PP substrates are bonded to polar thermoplastic elastomers or rigid engineering resins.
