Nucleating Agents
Crystallization of PET and PLA is generally slow, and it becomes even slower with higher rPET content, affecting both productivity and production output.
SUKANO® Nucleating Agents enhance the crystallization process, enabling you to achieve desired results faster. The masterbatch dosage allows full control of the amount of crystallization, depending on the material quality and end application characteristics.
Nucleating Agents enable efficient and cost-effective production of CPET and transparent CPET-light menu trays for food packaging applications.
Our Nucleating Agents facilitate the formulation of a uniform crystalline structure in the material. They control and speed-up crystallization, enhancing productivity while maintaining high-quality standards.
Melt Viscosity Enhancer
Polyester's inherent low viscosity and melt strength pose challenges in processes such as extrusion, injection molding, and foaming. With SUKANO® Melt Viscosity Enhancer masterbatches, you improve the melt strength of polymers and enable efficient processing. The masterbatch reconnects polymer chains directly in your process, allowing adjustable control.
Melt Viscosity Enhancers increase the processing window of the polymer, ensuring stable flow of the polymer melt, which is crucial in processing.

Processing Aids for PET/rPET
Seamlessly transition to PET and incorporate rPET without compromising productivity. Accelerate crystallization for PET to enable higher yield, improve its melt strength to broaden the processing window, and elevate IV levels in rPET, ensuring stable processing and superior quality of the end application.
Processing Aids for Biopolymers
Switch to biopolymers without sacrificing processing efficiency. While PLA inherently has slow processing and crystallization rates, our Nucleating Agents and IV Melt Enhancers broaden the processing window for biopolymers to enhance productivity. This allows the use of rPLA at the same production output.
Processing Aids for Polyolefins
Improve the crystallization speed for polyolefins and widen the processing window for improved productivity and higher production output. Benefit from good performance at lower processing temperatures.
