specialchem's platform is dedicated to deliver technical informations about polymer compounds, plastic additives and polymer additive.

A recent addition to the number of Internet portal websites for the plastics industry is SpecialChem (www.specialchem.com). The website is designed to help users of plastics additives source the right additive for a particular application .The site provides free access to all the sources of information required to make the choice, such as data sheets and technical reports, as well as providing contact details for the manufacturers of additives. The SpecialChem website is built around an on-line database about polymer additives and masterbatches that currently contains 9,500 technical data sheets from over 260 suppliers worldwide. The company adds that the database is free to access for additives users in the plastics and rubber industries. There are various search techniques available, including the function of the additive and the application it is designed for, as well as the chemical nature of the additive. The company adds that users of the site can access not only the technical data sheets, but also related technical literature, such as case studies, technical reports and formulations. Keywords can be used to refine the search precisely. These can be related to the final product for which the additive is required, or the conversion mode used in the production process such as moulding or extrusion. In addition, features, benefits and qualitative properties of the additive, such as non-staining or low volatility, can be used.
