Types of Additives by Function
{"Image DocumentName": "Types of Additives by Function", "Image ImageDescription": "Fillers \u2013 strengthen polymer or reduce cost. Plasticizers \u2013 soften polymer and improve flow. Colorants \u2013 pigments or dyes. Lubricants \u2013 reduce friction and improve flow. Flame retardents \u2013 reduce flammability of polymer. Cross\u2011linking agents \u2013 for thermosets and elastomers. Ultraviolet light absorbers \u2013 reduce degradation from sunlight. Antioxidants \u2013 reduce oxidation damage. \u00a92010 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
