Polymer additive ADD-BND

for the plastics industry

Product overview Cross-linkable binders for consolidation of nonwoven and electrospun mats. Acrylic- and starch-based chemistries supplied as aqueous emulsions or pellets. Designed to cure in the post-spinning oven to enable fibre-to-fibre bonding and web integrity. Additive in. Nanofiber out.

Key characteristics

• Chemistry: acrylic and starch-based cross-linkers
• Supply forms: aqueous emulsion or pellet
• Function: web consolidation and fibre-to-fibre bonding for downstream handling
• Curing: thermally activated in the post-spinning oven

Dosage and processing

• Pre-disperse the binder into the polymer matrix or masterbatch prior to spinning.
• Observe a defined dosing and processing window; production-lot specifications take precedence.
• Indicative ranges are based on public polymer-additive literature; request the current datasheet for supplied values.
• Standard workflow: compounder masterbatching, then run downstream on the spinning rig matched to your target product.

Process integration Aqueous emulsion or pellet is introduced at the designated feed point in the polymer-processing line. This diagram shows where the additive enters the Areka Group polymer-processing line and describes process integration, not a chemical-performance claim.

Handling and supply

• Available in drums or IBCs for emulsions; pellet formats for compounding.
• Store and handle according to the current technical data sheet and safety data sheet.
• Contact your technical representative to verify compatibility with target polymers and end-use requirements.
