Addressing the need for innovative and sustainable alternatives in the plastic composites industry, Dow has developed AMPLIFY™ Si Silicone Enhanced Polymer Systems (SEPS), a silicone-polyethylene hybrid technology that improves product performance and helps divert plastic waste from landfills. AMPLIFY™ Si PE 1000, designed for wood-plastic composite decking, is the first of a series of products Dow expects to launch under the new SEPS platform.
Bring New Life to Recycled Plastic
“Dow的Amplify™Si PE 1000使制造商能够在其木材复合制造过程中利用更多经济的选择，例如各种可回收的塑料和更高级别的填充剂DOW消费者解决方案商业总裁Mauro Gregorio说。“By incorporating this product into wood-plastic composite boards, manufacturers can more easily bring new life to recycled plastic, a tremendous contribution to sustainability and product reuse. AMPLIFY™Si PE 1000 also reduces energy costs and carbon footprint associated with this manufacturing process。”
Multiple Applications and Advantages
Amplify™Si PE 1000允许更高的吞吐量，较低的熔体温度和较低的热降解，制造商还可以期望看到较高的生产率，较低的排斥率以及其木质塑料复合板的拉伸和柔性强度的总体改善。除了甲板外，还可以在应用程序中使用Amplify™SI SEP，例如码头，栏杆，墙壁壁板，壁板，围栏，窗户配置文件，汽车和许多其他应用程序。
“This new family of products, which utilizes ‘silicone-polyethylene hybrid technology’, drives sustainability and innovation across many industries, provides a unique value proposition to our customers and helps to facilitate the transition to a circular economy，”格雷戈里奥说。
