How to improve the chemical stability of polyester monofilament?
What is polyester monofilament? A polyester monofilament (often PET) is a continuous, single fiber. Monofilaments are stronger and more rigid than multi-stranded fibres. Polyester monofilaments, widely used in consumer and industrial applications, are known for their outstanding mechanical properties, chemical resistance and abrasion resistance. Applications of polyester monofilament See more about Application of anti-hydrolysis agent in PET […]
The Importance of Stabilizers and Anti-Hydrolysis Agents in Polyester Monofilament Production Processes
Polyester monofilaments have a wide range of applications in many fields such as textile, industrial and consumer products. However, during production and use, polyester monofilaments may face problems such as oxidation, photodegradation, thermal decomposition and hydrolysis. To solve these problems, stabilizers play a crucial role in the production process. This article will introduce commonly used […]
The Application of HyMax KL-180 Epoxy Chain Extender in Recycled PET
As the world intensifies its focus on sustainability and environmental conservation, recycling and reusing plastic materials have become critical. Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is a key player in this arena due to its extensive use in packaging, textiles, and various consumer products. However, recycling PET presents significant challenges, including the degradation of mechanical properties and molecular […]
Comparative Evaluation of Three Crosslinking Agents Used in Polyurethanes
What is Curing Agent or Hardener? Curing agent (sometimes also referred to as hardener ) is a chemical substance added to coatings, adhesives, resins or other materials to promote polymerization or cross-linking reactions in them and change from liquid/paste form into solid form for curing purposes – creating curing substances with specific physical and chemical […]
Utilizing Anti-Hydrolysis Agents in Thermoplastic Polyurethane Films: Introducing Innovations that Reduce Hydrolysis
Introduction Within material science, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) films have emerged as an innovative solution, boasting impressive properties. Their durability and performance characteristics have only increased with anti-hydrolysis agents added as anti-hydrolysis agents further strengthen them extending their use across applications. This article delves deeper into their properties, applications and transformative potential within TPU film applications. […]
Application of carbodiimide as an anti-hydrolysis agent for bio-based TPU
Bio-based thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU), also named bio-based polyurethane, has gained a lot of attention in recent years. However, it is possible that ester bond hydrolysis could occur during its usage. Hydrolysis means the chemical chain is broken under the influence of water. This problem can be solved by adding carbodiimide. We will share this information […]
A detailed look into the hydrolysis of polymers: Profound focus on Urethane Hydrolysis
Basic Hydrolysis of polymers The hydrolysis of polymers involves a chemical reaction in which water interacts directly with the polymer. This interaction breaks the bonds that hold it together, and reduces the polymer into monomers or smaller polymer chains called oligomers. This is the opposite of polymerization – the process that creates polymers by combining […]
Application of Anti-Hydrolysis Agents in Recycled PET
What is polyester? Polyeseter is made from a polymer that has a variety of applications and types. It is produced by esterification,the chemical reaction in which an alcohol reacts with an acid to form an ester. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is probably is probably the most common polyester. Polyester is also the main component of synthetic […]
