POROUS PP CARRIER
POROUS PP CARRIER
1.Product Introduction of the POROUS PP CARRIER
CapatueTM PPC-PP is the name given to microporous PP foam for carrier purpose, PPC stands for Porous Polymer Carrier. It is completely utilized the physical foaming technology and process, thus no chemical foaming agents were used and high purity can be achieved. CapatueTM PP offers the polymer processing industry an efficient, easy way to convert liquid or paste-like polymer additives especially for some thermally sensitive additives into dry, free-flowing pellets, needless to extrude.
Microporous structures of CapatueTM PP acts like tiny sponges with the ability to absorb several times their own weight. When liquids or meltable solids are mixed with the porous polymer, the micron-size voids in the polymer are filled by capillary absorption. As the mixing is done at room temperature, CapatueTM PP is especially suitable for those thermally sensitive additives. When fully loaded with the liquid additive, the system remains dry and free-flowing. In these applications, the large inner surface of the CapatueTM PP, with its accompanying adhesion forces, is utilized in combination with the cell and pore structure of the matrix to retain liquid within the polymer carrier. An additional advantage is the fine dispersion of the additive in the CapatueTM PP structure which insures a homogeneous dispersion of the additive in the final product.
Microporous carrier CapatueTM PP can be used for the production of additive concentrates via physical adsorption of the additive. This product is most effective for the incorporation of liquid additives particularly when accurate dosage and homogeneity of the additive with the base resin is required.
2.Typical Properties of the POROUS PP CARRIER

3. Additive Loading Procedure of POROUS PP CARRIER
Put CapatueTM PP pellets into a low or medium speed mixer (Henschel mixer, Littleford Lodige mixer, Patterson Kelly V mixer, Sigma mixer, Vertical mixer, etc.) firstly and then add calculated amount of liquid additive (airless spray is strongly recommended.). Then turn on the mixer about 3-10 min. (need to check the temperature of the mixer, not too high (<70 ℃). After turning off, and cool down to room temperature, discharge the liquid adsorbed foamed pellets.
4.Packing Details of the POROUS PP CARRIER
The regular packing of this product is carton with PE liner (200kg net weight and 16 cartons for a 20 ft. container)) and paper bags with PE liner (10kg net weight).
5.Storage and Shelf Life of POROUS PP CARRIER:
Should be stored in dry, cool, ventilated room; keep away from water, moisture, high temperature and fire. This product has a shelf life of at least 24 months if stored in tightly closed original container at room temperature.
If this product is kept beyond the shelf life recommend on the product label, it is not necessarily unusable, but a quality control should be performed on the properties relevant to the application.
