  • BICOMPONENT FIBER ADDITIVE DELIVERY COMPOSITION
    Publication number: 20200240045
    Abstract: The biocomponent fiber functions as a carrier or vehicle for delivering additives to a polymer composition. The bicomponent fiber may be “splittable segmented pie” or “island-in-the-sea” construction with the sea being the low melt temperature component and the island being the high melt temperature component. The low melt temperature polymer may be selected from the group consisting of low density polyethylene (LDPE), high density polyethylene (HDPE), polylactic acid (PLA), polyhydroxyalkenoate (PHA), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polyvinylidene fluoride, polybutylene succinate (PBS), low melt temperature polyethylene terephthalate, polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT) and low melt temperature nylons.
    Type: Application
