AKULON XP FOR IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY IN PACKAGING FILMS
DSM Engineering Plastics has introduced Akulon XP, a high productivity grade of PA6 for film applications. Akulon XP offers a broader processing window leading to more flexibility and more uniform thickness distribution in cast film, more melt strength and better parison stability leading to optimized LDPE/LLDPE ratio in multi-layer films without sacrificing the mechanical properties, more shear thinning than with standard PA6 enabling thus higher coating velocities possible and still absolutely gel free.

New LNP* Verton* Xtreme Compounds from GE Plastics Deliver Unique One-Pellet Solutions for Enhanced Effects
BERGEN OP ZOOM, THE NETHERLANDS — June 28, 2007 — GE Plastics today introduced a new product platform that helps solve the drawbacks of dry-blending colorants, flame retardants, additives, and other effects in long-glass-fiber compounds. GE’s LNP* Verton* Xtreme compound portfolio has broken new ground with one-pellet solutions for enhanced color, flame retardance (FR), and weatherability. This patent-pending technology improves batch-to-batch consistency and within individual parts by eliminating the need to blend two pellet types, which can lead to separation, settling, and other quality issues. LNP Verton Xtreme compound grades – XC for extreme color, XFR for extreme flame retardance, and XW for extreme weatherability – enable customers to achieve the excellent mechanical properties of long-glass-fiber reinforcement while boosting quality and consistency that can reduce overall system costs.
