Product Applications

XIBOND® 235 is designed to act as blend optimizing additive for different functionalities such as compatibilizer, coupling agent, surface modifier and viscosity modifier.

Processing Information
  • XIBOND® 235 can be processed in all types of regular polymer processing equipment. For good dispersion in styrenic polymer like ABS, twin screw extruders with a mild screw configuration and vacuum degassing facility are recommended.
  • To avoid XIBOND® 235 degradation, temperatures above 280 °C and high shear stresses should be avoided.
