They also reduce the frictional resistance of end-product surfaces, enhancing both appearance and function. Our anti-fog additives eliminate the problem by lowering the surface tension of water droplets, causing them to merge and form a continuous transparent layer to maintain clarity. Cesa™ & OnCap™ Anti-blocking Additives In order to prevent self-adhesion of plastic films or sheets, anti-blocking additives reduce the surface coefficient of friction by creating a slightly rougher or smoother surface.

Surface Modifier Additives Liquid Metering System: ColorMatrix™ FlexCart™ Liquid Metering System: ColorMatrix™ FlexOne™

Key applications for this material are within the automotive sector including parts such as UTH covers, panels and inserts, fans and air management systems, battery trays, roofing systems and interior and exterior components. Improved surface quality

These regions are excellent options for ejector pins because they present increased surface area. This fastener method keeps one smooth surface, and has the fewest parts required of mechanical fasteners. Use compression limiters where mechanical fasteners are needed to assemble the system.
