Product Range
  • Run Cleaner. Process Faster.

    Improve melt flow behaviour, reduce die build-up, and increase extrusion efficiency.

    Problem Statement:  

    Extrusion operations can face melt fracture, sharkskin, high die pressure, and unstable output, especially at higher throughputs.

    How does it work:  

    KONSPEC PROSOL® Polymer Processing Aid Masterbatch improves polymer-metal flow behaviour and reduces surface stress during extrusion, resulting in smoother melt flow and more stable processing.

    Key Benefits:  

    • Reduces melt fracture

    • Improves extrusion smoothness

    • Supports higher output

    • Lowers die pressure

    • Helps reduce downtime and cleaning frequency

     

    Applications:  

    Blown films, multilayer films, cast films, pipes, sheets, extrusion coating.

    Global Testing Standards:  

    • Extrusion trials – Melt fracture evaluation

    • Die pressure measurement (line trials)

    • Output rate comparison

    • Surface quality (sharkskin elimination)

     

    Why KONSPEC:  

    • Application-specific process optimisation

    • Stable processing support at high throughput

    • Solutions available across multiple extrusion lines

  • Easier Release. Faster Moulding.

    Reduce sticking, improve demoulding, and support higher moulding productivity.

    Problem Statement:  

    Parts can stick to mould surfaces, causing cycle delays, part damage, inconsistent finish, and reduced output.

     

    How does it work:   

    KONSPEC PROSOL® Mould Release Masterbatch lowers adhesion between the polymer and mould surface, supporting smoother release and more efficient moulding.

     

    Key Benefits:  

    • Improves demoulding

    • Reduces sticking and part damage

    • Helps shorten cycle time

    • Supports cleaner surface finish

     

    Applications:  

    Injection moulding, blow moulding, technical moulded parts, consumer products.

     

    Global Testing Standards:  

    • Demould force measurement

    • Cycle time evaluation

    • Surface finish inspection

    • Plate-out testing

     

    Why KONSPEC:  

    • Designed for moulding productivity

    • Balanced release and appearance performance

    • Consistent additive distribution

  • KONSPEC Purging Compounds Minimise Downtime. Maximise Uptime.

    Speed up colour changes, clear material transitions, and eliminate carbonised residues for cleaner, faster production changeovers.

    Problem Statement:

    Colour changes, material transitions, and maintenance procedures demand equipment downtime. Conventional purging with virgin resin is slow, wasteful, and often ineffective — leading to scrap generation, production delays, and costly quality rejections.

    How does it work: 

    KONSPEC Purging Compounds combine mechanical and chemical action to remove polymer residues, carbonised deposits, and colour contamination from screws, barrels, and dies. A dual-action mechanism — high-shear scrubbing alongside chemical breakdown — delivers thorough, rapid cleaning across processing equipment.

    Key Benefits:

    • Reduces purging time from 45–60 minutes to 15–20 minutes

    • Increases available production time by up to 8–12% annually

    • Eliminates colour carry-over and carbonised deposit build-up

    • Reduces scrap material generation

    • Handles demanding dark-to-light and carbon black transitions

     

    Applications: Injection moulding, extrusion, blown film — across colour changes, material transitions, and scheduled maintenance procedures.

     

    Formulation Features:

    • Thermal stabilisers preventing degradation during extended residence

    • Foaming agents improving surface contact and coverage

    • Compatibilisers ensuring universal polymer compatibility

     

    Global Testing Standards:

    • Changeover time measurement (before and after trials)

    • Colour carry-over evaluation

    • Carbon deposit removal assessment

    • Scrap material reduction comparison

     

    Why KONSPEC:

    • 38+ years of polymer processing expertise

    • R&D-optimised formulations for demanding cleaning applications

    • Compatible across injection moulding, extrusion, and blown film lines

    • Application-specific processing efficiency analysis

     

    Discuss your changeover challenge with KONSPEC and identify the right purging compound for faster transitions and cleaner equipment.

  • KONSPEC Cycle Time Optimisers Accelerate Production Without Compromising Quality

    Reduce cycle times, improve cooling efficiency, and increase throughput across injection moulding, blow moulding, and extrusion lines.

    Problem Statement:

    Polymer processors face pressure to increase output whilst maintaining product quality. Slow cooling rates, inconsistent crystallisation, and extended cycle times reduce profitability and limit market responsiveness.

     

    How does it work: 

    KONSPEC Cycle Time Optimisers enhance heat dissipation through controlled nucleation, accelerating cooling rates and crystallisation processes. This delivers faster, more uniform solidification without compromising mechanical properties or surface finish.

    Key Benefits:

    • Reduces cycle times by 15–30%

    • Accelerates cooling and crystallisation

    • Maintains tensile strength and dimensional stability

    • Preserves surface finish and aesthetic quality

    • Lowers energy consumption and machine hours

     

    Applications: Injection moulding, blow moulding, extrusion — across FMCG packaging, automotive components, and engineering thermoplastic applications.

    Compatible Polymers: PP, PE, PET, and engineering thermoplastics.

     

    Global Testing Standards:

    • Cycle time measurement (before and after trials)

    • Crystallisation rate analysis

    • Tensile strength and dimensional stability testing

    • Surface finish evaluation

     

    Why KONSPEC:

    • 38+ years of polymer science expertise

    • R&D-driven formulations with application-specific support

    • Seamless integration into existing production protocols

    • Sustainability benefits alongside operational efficiency gains
