  • GRAFTED POLYETHYLENE
    Publication number: 20150376409
    Abstract: Grafted polyethylene polymers and copolymers are reactively extruded to achieve enhanced rheological properties. The utilization of an oligomeric or polymeric wax in the reactive extrusion process with functionalized agents, results in improved rheological characteristics of the grafted polymer.

  • Flame retardant compositions
    Patent number: 9056980
    Abstract: A substrate having a flame retardant polymer chemically bonded to at least a portion of the substrate. The use of a substrate possessing at least a partially coated outer surface of a flame retardant polymer enables the manufacturing of polymer composites, containing the coated substrate, that possess very effective flame retardant performance while reducing the loading levels over conventional flame retardant additives.
