H.M. Royal and Dow Corning Join Forces to Benefit Composites Compounding and Extrusion

H.M. Royal has recently added Dow Corning to our portfolio of trusted chemical manufacturers!

Established in 1943, Dow Corning is a global leader in silicones and silicon-based technology and offers more than 7,000 products to over 25,000 customers worldwide.

As a part of the H.M. Royal network of chemical suppliers, we will be working with Dow Corning to provide Si based Additives and Modifiers, including Dow Corning® 11-100 Additive and Dow Corning® 4-7081 Resin Modifier, to the customers in the plastics and composite industry.

These products can be used in the extrusion process or applied to mineral fillers and inorganic surfaces  to facilitate compounding with a polymer, resin or rubber.  These additives  offer many benefits, including:

•     Reduced die drool
•     Heat release rate
•     Longer shelf life
•     Hydrophobicity
•     Improved stability, productivity and strength
