Description

1-Propene, Polymer With Ethene, Oxidized is a chemically modified polyolefin copolymer, specifically an oxidized derivative of a propylene-ethylene polymer. This modification introduces polar functional groups such as carbonyl and hydroxyl, significantly enhancing its compatibility with polar substrates and improving adhesion and dispersibility properties. It is a crucial material for formulators in the coatings, adhesives, and polymer processing industries seeking to improve product performance through surface modification and rheology control.

Application

• Adhesive & Sealant Formulations: Acts as a key adhesion promoter and compatibilizer, improving bond strength on difficult substrates like metals and treated plastics.
• Industrial & Protective Coatings: Used as a rheology modifier and dispersing agent for pigments and fillers, enhancing coating uniformity and durability.
• Polymer Modification: Serves as a compatibilizer in polymer blends and composites, improving the interfacial adhesion between polar and non-polar polymers.
• Printing Inks: Functions as a wetting and dispersing agent for pigments, improving ink gloss, color strength, and stability.
• Lubricant & Grease Additives: Utilized as a tackifier and thickener, providing structural stability and adhesive properties to specialized lubricants.
• Textile & Fiber Treatment: Applied as a surface modifier to improve dye uptake, antistatic properties, and fiber processing.

Quality Control

Our 1-Propene, Polymer With Ethene, Oxidized is manufactured under a stringent quality management system. Each batch is tested against key parameters including acid value, saponification value, melt viscosity, and softening point to ensure consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these specifications are available for every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your formulation requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized; for long-term storage, maintaining an inert atmosphere (e.g., under nitrogen) in the headspace of partially used containers is recommended to preserve product integrity. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
