SCONA® 20097

SCONA® 20097 by BYK is an excellent compatibilizer for blends of polypropylene and polar polymers such as polyamides and ethylene vinyl alcohol and improves the dispersion of the polymer polar material. It acts as an excellent coupling agent for short and long glass fiber-reinforced polyolefins and increases their physical, mechanical and thermal properties. It is a dispersing aid for polypropylene/filler composites (e.g. aluminum hydroxide (ATH)). It is a polymeric modifier based on polypropylene homopolymer functionalized with a high degree of maleic anhydride. SCONA® 20097 possesses excellent wetting properties because of its very low viscosity. It exhibits a good price-performance ratio, a very weak odor, low VOC content and share of emissions. It is designed for extruders, blow molding and injection molding machines. Recommended use level is 1-4% as dispersing aid & coupling agent and 5-30% as compatibilizer. It has a shelf life of 24 months.
