About Acrylic Processing Aid
Acrylic Processing Aid (ACR): An acrylic ester copolymer with a core-shell structure, designed to enhance PVC processing. Compared to PVC, ACR has a higher molecular weight (1-8 million, weight average) and a true density of 1.05-1.20 g/cm3. It is synthesized via multiple emulsion polymerizations using acrylic acids, crosslinking agents, emulsifiers, initiators, and molecular weight regulators, producing a white, micro, non-toxic, non-corrosive powder.
Performance Benefits:
- Promotes faster fusion and increases melt strength.
- Enhances extensibility and melt homogeneity.
- Improves surface quality and wall-thickness control of PVC products.
- Enhances thermoforming capabilities.
- Accelerates fusion rate, increases productivity, and reduces processing temperature.
- Improves dispersion of additives and uniformity of PVC melt.
- Provides excellent clarity and surface quality for rigid and soft PVC.
