GEL ALL MD-LM30G

1,3:2,4-bis-O-(4-methylbenzylidene)-D-sorbitol. Acts as a nucleating agent for polyolefin resins. GEL ALL MD-LM30G is the low melting point type of GEL ALL MD. It enables setting low temperatures for kneading and forming while maintaining good dispersibility and transparency by controlling fusing characteristics. Usual melting point of MD is 260 to 265°C, but the melting point of GEL ALL MD-LM30G is 200 to 220°C, which is within the range of general processing temperatures for polypropylene. This melting point characteristic enables kneading and forming in the temperature range where polymer and transparent nucleating agent are both melted, thereby enabling exertion of good dispersibility and transparency in resins. In addition, the bulk density of GEL ALL MD-LM30G is about double that of GEL ALL MD, and therefore accurate addition can be done with its favorable powder fluidity and few dust formation.
