AddWorks® PPA
Our new line of PFAS-free polymer processing aids for polyolefin film extrusion
Introducing our new line of polymer processing aids: AddWorks PPA. These products are designed for polyolefin film extrusion and are free from perfluoralkyl substances (PFAS) in response to increasingly tightening regulation around the persistent nature and potential health impacts of PFAS compounds. While complying with these tighter regulations, the new PFAS-free AddWorks PPA solutions are able to substitute the conventional fluoropolymer based polymer processing aids and deliver the high performance required in extruded polyolefin film production. AddWorks PPA enables melt fracture control, efficient extrusion and optimal film quality, while meeting the need for more environmentally sustainable additives in this application area.
