MODIPER® C series
MODIPER® A, C series are innovative type graft copolymers, consisting of polyolefin as main-chain and polyvinyl as branch polymer, which is exclusively manufactured by NOF CORPORATION utilizing NOF’s developed grafting technology. MODIPER® A, C series can improve the mechanical property, surface property, compatibility and others of thermoplastic resins.

About MODIPER® A, C series
- MODIPER® A series is a graft copolymer, consisting of polyolefin as main-chain and polyvinyl as branch polymer.
- MODIPER® C series is a graft copolymer, consisting of polycarbonate as main-chain and polyvinyl as branch polymer.
- MODIPER® A, C series can improve the mechanical property, surface property, compatibility and others of thermoplastic resins with 1-10% additive ratio.
- MODIPER® A, C series are additives with high molecular weight, so they can keep the mechanical, thermal, molding properties of any resins. Furthermore, they do not also cause migration and evaporation from the resin.
- MODIPER® A, C series are environmental friendly, because no halogen compounds are contained.
