Milliken at K2010 launched

With 56 days to go, Milliken today opened the digital doors to their K2010 stand via www.clearPP.com/kblog. Regular updates before and during the show allow Milliken to communicate actively about their many additive innovations for polyolefins to be presented at K 2010 (Düsseldorf, Germany, 27 Oct - 2 Nov).

Milliken will showcase pioneering possibilities in optical enhancement and productivity and processing improvements for packaging, automotive and technical applications, with the added bonus of energy reduction, less material consumption, and more cost-effective production.

Latest developments to be featured at K 2010 are spearheaded by Millad® clarifying agents that yield aesthetic properties never seen before in polypropylene (PP). These are complemented by ClearTint® polymeric colorants that put bright colors into plastics without compromising clarity or processability.

Also in the line-up are important new developments to Milliken's range of Hyperform® nucleating agents. These deliver major improvements in performance and processability, not only in polypropylene but increasingly in polyethylene (PE). New Hyperform reinforcing additives that are destined to replace mineral fillers, and thereby reduce weight, in many applications will also be featured.
