Results for tag: "Nucleating Agents"

Nucleating agents are chemical compounds used in chemical engineering to improve the properties of polymers. They are used to increase the crystallinity of polymers, reduce the cycle time of injection molding, and improve the clarity and impact strength of polymers. Nucleating agents are also used to reduce the thermal expansion of polymers, improve the dimensional stability of polymers, and reduce the cost of production. Nucleating agents are used in a variety of industries, including automotive, packaging, and medical. They are used to improve the performance of polymers in a variety of applications, such as injection molding, extrusion, and blow molding. Some companies in the nucleating agents market include BASF, Clariant, Evonik, Dow Chemical, and Eastman Chemical. Show Less Read more
