PLASTICS ADDITIVES SUMMARY

Many applications for polymers require properties additional to those provided by the base polymer. The additives available are many and varied and in some instances, where demand is sufficiently high, may be added to a particular grade of polymer at the production stage.

Please Note: This page is for information purposes only. Rutland Plastics is an Injection Moulder and does not supply plastics additives.

The following list of additive types is by no means exhaustive but covers the most commonly used. In time links will be added to each of these taking you to a page with more information on the relevant additive.

KNOWLEDGE BANK

The Rutland Plastics website and knowledge bank contains a wealth of information on plastics and moulding. It not only covers Rutland Plastics itself and the services it offers, but also the injection moulding process, other moulding methods, polymers, designing for plastics, application stories and other articles relating to plastic moulding.
