Transparent plastics are certainly not new to packaging applications, and their use has continued to grow, as designers take advantage of clarity as yet another tool to differentiate their packaged goods. At the same time, use of clarified...

The Electrical/Electronics (E/E) end-use market is the world's 3rd largest plastics sector behind packaging and building/construction. Apart from mechanical properties, the electrical behavior of plastics is a vital factor when using these materials...

To perform satisfactorily, both rigid and flexible PVC call for an efficient additive package that includes heat stabilizers. Heat stabilizers, which are essential components of a PVC formulation protect the polymer during elevated processing...

High refractive index optical compositions based on polymer matrices filled with high concentrations of ZnS nanoparticles were developed. These materials have good optical properties and processability like usual polymers, and they are suitable for...

This invention provides a transparent conductive PC film coated with a mixed solution of carbon nanotubes and a binder, by which a touch panel having high transmissivity can be manufactured by directly forming a transparent conductive layer on a PC...

Recent developments concerning the methodology used to prepare composites of isotactic PP and nanoclays are reported. Conventional (reactive melt mixing) and in situ preparations were performed, and the structural properties exhibited by the...
