Specialty Additives

Specialty polyetherimide (PEI) additives can promote non-halogenated flame retardance, offer stable dielectrical constant and dissipation factors, and are especially valuable for strengthening metal adhesion in vacuum and electroless plating processes.  Polyphenylene ether (PPO*) additives also deliver non - halogenated FR plus low water absorption, and can provide excellent electrical properties and improved dimensional and hydrolytic stability.

Polyetherimide (PEI) resin additives

  • Ultem* PEI resin additives (based on BisDA) 
  • Siltem* PEI resin additives (PEI-siloxane copolymer) 
  • Extem* thermoplastic polyimide (TPI) resin additives

Polyphenylene ether (PPO) resin additives 

  • PPO resin oligomers 
  • PPO resin powders 
  • PPO resin concentrates 


 


Chemical Intermediates

In liquid and powder coatings, chemical intermediates can improve resistance to weather, heat and wear. Adhesives, dyes and fiber sizing benefit from increased thermal resistance, while thermosets are improved in heat, durability and toughness.

Specialty Intermediates

  • Chloro phthalic anhydrides 
  • Specialty dianhydrides 
  • Phenols and bisphenols
