Q1: What types of polymers is Atmer 1013 compatible with?
A: Atmer 1013 is widely used in polyolefins such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), and demonstrates good compatibility with other thermoplastics including ABS, PS, and certain engineering resins. Its performance may vary depending on polymer polarity and processing conditions.
Q2: How is Atmer 1013 typically incorporated into polymer formulations?
A: It is commonly added during compounding—either via dry blending with polymer pellets or directly metered into the extruder feed throat or side feeder. It is also suitable for masterbatch production due to its thermal stability and low volatility.
Q3: Does Atmer 1013 affect the mechanical or optical properties of the final product?
A: When used at recommended dosage levels, Atmer 1013 generally has minimal impact on tensile strength, impact resistance, or clarity. However, excessive loading may influence surface appearance or long-term migration behavior, so optimization for each application is advised.
Q4: Is Atmer 1013 suitable for applications requiring regulatory compliance for food contact or medical devices?
A: Atmer 1013 is designed for industrial and functional applications. While it meets general requirements for many non-food-contact polymer uses, customers must verify suitability against specific regional regulations and intended end-use conditions through their own testing and regulatory assessment.
Q5: What storage conditions are recommended to maintain product stability?
A: Store in original sealed containers at temperatures between 5 °C and 30 °C, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat or moisture. Under these conditions, shelf life is typically 12–24 months from date of manufacture.
