    At K 2019, WACKER will present a new silicone additive that reduces the hardness of thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) while increasing elasticity and enhancing performan.


     

     

     

     

    Genioplast Pellet 345 complements WACKER's portfolio of composite silicone additives for thermoplastic polyme.


    Genioplast Pellet 345 is a siloxane copolymer and can be processed like a thermoplast.


    The addition of Genioplast Pellet 345 improves the surface smoothness of thermoplastic polyurethanes, thereby enhancing their scratch and abrasion resistan.


    Adding more than 10% Genioplast Pellet 345 to a TPU affects its hardness and mechanical properties, making it softer and more elast.


    A characteristic of plastic products made from TPU and new additives is their dry, smooth surfa.


    With this property, Genioplast Pellet 345 expands the application range of thermoplastic polyurethan.
