Global Polymers

Updates to the Global Polymers data table, part of the Advanced Materials – Polymers data bundle.

Comprehensive data for plastic grades and plastics additives. Includes plastics data from Prospector Plastics, with more than 109000 data sheets from over 1000 manufacturers. More than 15000 additives data records provide key properties for additive, filler and masterbatch products, that can be compounded with plastic materials to enhance performance or safety, reduce weight and cost, or improve processing processes.
