What are the benefits of using a surface treated functional filler vs. an untreated one?
The benefits of surface treating fillers for better mechanical properties within polymer systems.
TREMICA® muscovite mica (phlogopite also available under TREFIL® 1232 brand name) is a high aspect ratio, platy, particle suitable for use in high temperature plastics and coatings due to its low distortion and crack prevention properties. Mica is also frequently used in anti-corrosion coatings, where it forms an effective barrier through increasing salt and water percolation distance.
TREMICA® 1155-010 AST enhances tensile shear strength and changes the failure mode from cohesive to adhesive in 2k PU structural adhesives.
TREMICA 1155-010 AST increase STP adhesives tensile strength significantly, with a comparable elongation at tear.
