DuPont Additives for Polymer Modification

DuPont polymers help the plastics industry build better materials

Choose from a portfolio of reactive, nonreactive and functionalized resins

Reactive ethylene copolymers from DuPont include Elvaloy® PTW (EnBAGMA) copolymer for polyester toughening; and selected grades of Surlyn® ionomer resins for polyamide toughening.

Nonreactive ethylene copolymers from DuPont™ include new Elvaloy® AC acrylate copolymers (EBAs, EEAs and EMAs) and widely used Elvaloy® EVACO, EBACO grades. These products are often selected to impart softness, flexibility, toughness or other desired properties to compounded plastics, without reacting with the base resins.

DuPont™ Fusabond® functionalized polyolefins include maleic anhydride grafted base resins that help compounders boost toughness and incorporate glass fiber and other fillers into a wide range of plastics. DuPont manufactures Fusabond® grades using a variety of base resins and useful graft levels.

DuPont Entira™ antistatic additives are extremely hygroscopic ionomer resins that provide permanent antistatic performance for industrial and packaging applications. Entira™ antistat resins offers superb aesthetics, clarity, non-yellowing, dust-free protection.
