Results for tag: "Polyethers"

Polyethers are a type of plastic additive used to improve the performance of polymers. They are used to increase the flexibility, toughness, and heat resistance of polymers, as well as to reduce their flammability. Polyethers are also used to improve the adhesion of polymers to other materials, and to reduce their water absorption. Polyethers are used in a wide range of applications, including automotive, construction, and medical products. Polyethers are produced by a variety of methods, including condensation polymerization, ring-opening polymerization, and polyaddition. The global polyethers market is expected to grow at a steady rate, driven by the increasing demand for polymers in various industries. Some of the major companies in the polyethers market include BASF, Dow Chemical, Evonik Industries, Mitsui Chemicals, and Solvay. Show Less Read more
