1 Rev.no. 23M, Company Businness Units FUNCTIONAL POWDERS FUNCTIONAL MODIFIERS MASTERBATCHES POLYMER ALLOYS R & D COMPATIBILIZERS & COUPLING AGENTS Products Pipeline 2018 Compatibilizers are used to promote interfacial adhesion in polymer compounds, which are otherwise immiscible. They usually contain multiple functional groups, with both groups being compatible with one of the phases. These molecules tend to concentrate at the interfaces and stabilize them, thus allowing finer dispersion and compatibility of mutually incompatible pairs. Coupling agents are chemicals which improve the interfacial properties of mineral fillers and polymers (they reduce the interfacial tension which is disadvantageous rather than advantageous, but simultaneously they reduce the agglomeration tendency of filler particles, thus improving their accessibility to polymer molecules). Coupling agents usually react with the filler surface but exhibit at least one side group which react with the polymer matrix or is at least compatible with it. 1

2 Advantages of Our Proprietary Grafting Technologies GRAFT POLYMER PRODUCTS > 90% Grafting efficiency Almost no residual chemicals LOWER VOC COMPETITORS PRODUCTS 30-50% Grafting Efficiency A higher amount of leftover reagents may disrupt polymer processing Blocked Grafting : Functional groups such as MAH are activated at higher temperatures (>160 C) The material can be safely stored for at least 36 months. The material is prone to moisture uptake, hydrolysis occurs, and it is reduced in effectiveness by up to 5 times HIGH grafting degree, UP to 3% By grafting higher amounts of MAH, we substantially reduce the quantity required to achieve good compatibility: Up to 60% less compatibilizers required Very slight MFI reduction when comparing grafted materials to virgin material. (PE) MFI Decreases from 8 g/10min to 6 g/10min Grafted material retains good flowing capabilities (PP) MFI Decreases from 30 g/10min to 18 g/10min Higher melt strength and stability, almost no chain degradation Grafting degree up to 2%, with many unreacted monomers present Big difference in MFI of grafted materials when comparing to same virgin materials. (PE) MFI Decrease from 8 g/10min to 0,8g/10min, Worse flowing capabilities than virgin material, making it harder to process (PP) MFI increases from 30 g/10min to 100 g/10min A lot of degradation and chain shortening 2

3 GRAFT POLYMER PRODUCTS Grafting reaction temperatures are low, at the melting temperature of polymers (140 C-150 C for polyolefins) No material degradation, a whiter color of grafted material and no additional antioxidants are present. COMPETITORS PRODUCTS Grafting reaction temperatures are at polymer degradation temperatures (270 C) Grafted material is degraded, more yellow has additional antioxidants ONE step grafting process Extruder or solid phase reactor, with no additional process steps White grafted material Doesn t affect final product color Longer grafting process Grafted with two extruders, sometimes grafted in solid phase reactor and extruder (MIX), making the process more resource consuming Yellow grafted material May influence final material s color MALEIC ANHYDRIDE (MAH) GLYCIDYL METHACRYLATE (GMA) The versatility of Grafting Monomers METHYL METHACRYLATE (MMA) ACRYLIC ACID (AAc) BUTYL ACRYLATE (BA) VINYL ACETATE (VA) DIETHYL MALEATE (DEM) ACRYLAMIDE (AAm) ACRYLONITRILE (ACN) OTHERS. 3
