Plastistrength process aid are used to enhance PVC processing based on high molecular weight methacrylate / acrylate polymers, they are fully compatible with PVC and provide high transparency. Plastistrength process aid will promote PVC fusion and homogeneity. Melt strength and elasticity can be fully monitored through the proper selection of the process aid.
