Reactive functional copolymers
Non reactive polar copolymers
Coupling agent mechanism

Product description
Applications


Non reactive polar copolymers

The concept is to reduce interfacial tension and increase the adhesion by creation of a specific polar interaction like hydrogen bonding or Van der Waals forces. The compatibilizer has to be compatible with one phase (generally nonpolar) and has to create specific interactions with the other phase. Figure 1 illustrates the mechanism of action
