Abstract: Polymer compositions with an end-capped polyether-polyester copolymer, a transition metal catalyst and an active material that acts on, interacts or reacts with moisture. The polyether-polyester copolymer has (i) polyether segments where at least one polyether segment contains at least one polytetramethylene oxide segment; (ii) polyester segments; (iii) bridging elements of the structure —CO—R2-CO—, where R2 represents an optionally substituted bivalent hydrocarbon residue consisting of 1 to 100 carbon atoms; and (iv) one or two end-caps R1-O—(C2-C4-O—)e-*, where R1 is an optionally substituted hydrocarbon residue and e is an integer of from 0 to 1000. The polymer composition is capable of scavenging oxygen and can be used in compositions and articles to remove oxygen or to function as an active oxygen barrier.
Abstract: A liquid additive composition containing a fluoropolymer; an organophosphite antioxidant; a sterically hindered phenol antioxidant; and one or more hydrocarbon polymer dispersants provided improved processing and product appearance in film applications, extrusion blow molding and as a masterbatch enhancer.
Abstract: The present invention relates to an encapsulated antistatic agent composition and a method for preparation thereof. The encapsulated antistatic agent composition of the present disclosure provides long lasting antistatic action in plastic products and is used in masterbatch. The encapsulated antistatic agent composition comprises a carrier consisting of a mixture of silica and clay, and an antistatic agent encapsulated in the carrier.
