Extrusion Notes
Entira™ Strong 1002 is available in pellet form for use in conventional extrusion equipment designed to process PP, PET, and PA resins.

Entira™ Strong 1002 can be fed together with base resin and other additives in the hopper during the fiber spinning or film/tape extrusion process. Typical addition levels of Entira™ Strong 1002 range from 2-10 wt%. If the temperature at the hopper exceeds 60-70°C (140-158°F), bridging may occur. Water cooling of the screw and/or hopper feed throat may help avoid bridging problems. As long as the melt temperature does not exceed 300°C (572°F), the extrusion processing conditions do not have to be altered when using Entira™ Strong 1002.
