Polymer additives for moisture control serve various functions in controlling the behavior and performance of polymers when they are exposed to moisture. These additives can help to maintain the properties of the polymer or plastic, such as its mechanical strength, color stability, and dimensional integrity, among other aspects.
These special chemical agents are integrated into polymer composites to manage their behavior when exposed to water or humid conditions. They serve a myriad of functions – from absorbing excess moisture and scavenging water to maintaining dimensional stability and even extending product lifespan.
Moisture-control additives are not just an optional add-on but essential for:
Some categories of polymer additives are:
Case Study Lohtragon® V15 - Enhances Polymer Longevity and Performance
The hygroscopic nature of Lohtragon® V15 | based on Magnesium Sulfate enables it to regulate the moisture content within polymers, thereby preserving their properties and extending their service life. The diverse applications across industries like packaging, construction, and medical devices underscore its indispensability in enhancing the performance and sustainability of polymer products. By embracing Lohtragon® V15 as a polymer additive, industries can move a step closer to achieving high-quality, durable, and eco-friendly polymer-based solutions.
Investing in moisture control additives is not just an option; it is a necessity for many applications to enhance mechanical properties, aesthetics, and durability. Specific Lohtragon® PA polymer additives can act as desiccants and drying agents or have dedicated properties to match the moisture content to the desired level.
