MBS Impact Modifier
Product Overview
This MBS (Methyl Methacrylate-Butadiene-Styrene) Impact Modifier is a high-performance core-shell structured additive, specially engineered for rigid transparent and semi-transparent PVC applications. With a precisely designed multi-layer copolymer structure, it delivers a perfect balance of excellent low-temperature impact resistance, high optical clarity and stable processing performance, without compromising the inherent mechanical properties of base PVC resin.

Core Advantages
1. Outstanding Clarity & Impact Balance: Matches the refractive index of PVC system precisely, ensuring high light transmittance and low haze for transparent end products, while significantly boosting Izod impact strength at room and low temperatures.
2. High Processing Efficiency: Features fast fusion performance under standard calendering and extrusion conditions, shortens gelation time, reduces processing torque, and effectively improves production line output.
3. Low Dosage & Cost Optimization: Delivers high impact efficiency at 6-9 phr addition level, helps customers optimize formulation cost without sacrificing final product performance.
4. Good Weathering Performance: The optimized shell structure effectively isolates internal butadiene rubber phase from UV and oxygen, ensuring long-term toughness retention for indoor and semi-outdoor transparent PVC products.
5. Wide Formulation Compatibility: Shows excellent miscibility with PVC stabilizers, processing aids, pigments and other additives, no negative impact on the surface gloss and printing performance of finished products.
Recommended Applications
· Transparent PVC calendered films, food contact packaging sheets
· Clear PVC rigid bottles, cosmetic containers and blister packaging
· Transparent PVC profiles, transparent pipe fittings and decorative panels
· PC, PC/ABS, PC/PBT engineering resin blends for impact modification
· Non-transparent PVC sheets, magnetic cards, pipes and fittings for general-purpose scenarios
Suggested Dosage
For transparent PVC film and sheet applications, the recommended addition level is 5-8 phr. For non-transparent rigid PVC products, the suggested dosage is 4-8 phr. Customers are recommended to conduct lab formulation tests on their own production lines to confirm the optimal loading level based on specific impact and clarity requirements.
