Furthermore, using food-grade solutions doesn\u2019t mean sacrificing on quality \u2013 in fact they commonly outperform fossil-based alternatives.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Solutions on show at K 2019 will include:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Anti-fogs, including Einar 1122, a new water-based solvent-free dispersion of food-grade additives. Ideal for stretched polyolefin and polyester films, it delivers anti-fogging performance at low coating concentrations and compares well with competing products;<\/li>\n<li>Anti-statics, including Einar 601, an amine-free solution for anti-static protection in polyethylene (PE) applications;<\/li>\n<li>Mould release solutions, including Einar 201, a reliable general-purpose mould release and de-nesting additive for PP applications;<\/li>\n<li>Dispersing aids, including Einar 101, which disperses pigments more effectively than industry-standard waxes;<\/li>\n<li>Coating additive blends for EPS, including Einar 543 and Einar 544, which offer a very convenient way to apply EPS coatings. These all-in-one solutions, complete with zinc stearate, eliminate the need to handle several different individual products. The complete coating formulation is an easy-to-use, pre-blended formulation offering easy dosing and accuracy, better and faster handling, and options for additive inventory optimization.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As well as being highly efficient and cost-effective, all the products are produced in Palsgaard\u2019s CO<sub>2<\/sub>-neutral facilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At K2019, Palsgaard (Hall 7, level 1 \/ D20) will be presenting its portfolio of additive solutions for a wide range of polymer applications.
