Additives
Additives step in where the base polymer falls short: glass fibre adds stiffness and heat resistance, carbon fibre lightness and conductivity, PTFE lubricity, flame retardants fire performance, waxes processability, masterbatch and pigments colour and UV protection, and talc dimensional stability. Forbest Plastik supplies these inputs to compounders and to manufacturers who blend in-house. Which additive at which loading depends on the polymer and the target property; our technical team proposes the suitable type and a starting level for your formulation.
