Overview
PARALOID™ EXL additives increase the ductility of injection moldings, lower temperature toughness, and reduce melt viscosity for engineering resins. PARALOID™ EXL 3361 was designed for dark-colored polycarbonate and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) that promotes color homogeneity in the end application. This pellet form improves ease of handling while bringing thermal stability and impact strength for inherently brittle engineered resins.
