COUPLING AGENTS

COUPLING AGENT

“ATABOND^®” Coupling Agents are  functional polymers that improve the interfacial properties of mineral fillers/fibers and polymers. “ATABOND^®” Coupling Agents reduce the interfacial tension which is disadvantageous rather than advantageous, but simultaneously they reduce the agglomeration tendency of filler particles, thus improving their accessibility to polymer molecules. Coupling agents usually react with the filler surface, but exhibit at least one side group which react with the polymer matrix or is at least compatible with it.

“ATABOND^®“Coupling agents are used:

• HFFR compounds for many different sectors (such as cables, construction, automotive industry)
• Wood-Polymer Composites (WPC)
• Fiber (Glassfiber, Carbonfiber, Bazaltfiber) reinforced  thermoplastic Polymer
