Performance Additives

Performance additives such as microspheres, aramid fibers and odorants bring unique properties to products and compounds. The benefits of using these materials include longer product lifespan, high temperature performance, lightweighting and volumetric cost reduction.

Performance additives offer a range of different properties that can be applied to many polymer compounds to achieve desired finished product performance. End-use applications can range from highly technical compounds to everyday products including elastomers, adhesives, engineering plastics, plastic coatings and machine parts.
