Results for tag: "Drag Reducing Agent"

Drag Reducing Agents (DRAs) are plastic additives used to reduce the drag force on a surface. DRAs are typically polymers that are added to a liquid or gas to reduce the friction between the two. This reduces the amount of energy needed to move the liquid or gas, resulting in improved efficiency. DRAs are used in a variety of industries, including automotive, aerospace, and marine. They are also used in the production of plastics, paints, and coatings. DRAs are typically applied in the form of a solution or suspension, and can be used in a variety of applications. They can be used to reduce the drag on a surface, improve the flow of a liquid or gas, or reduce the viscosity of a material. DRAs can also be used to reduce the surface tension of a material, allowing for improved adhesion and coating properties. Some companies in the Drag Reducing Agent market include BASF, Dow, Evonik, Clariant, and AkzoNobel. Show Less Read more
