CAS 38742-70-0 High Temp Thermoplastic Microspheres for Plastic Weight Reduction 20-40μm Particle Size
Product Overview
CAS 38742-70-0 20-40μm High Temp Thermoplastic Microspheres are fine-particle physical foaming and lightweight fillers customized for high-end plastic modification. With a precise and narrow 20-40μm particle size distribution, the microspheres feature uniform particle fineness and excellent dispersibility. Under high-temperature thermoplastic processing conditions, the microspheres expand stably and evenly to form dense, fine closed-cell structures inside plastic substrates. This product effectively reduces material density and realizes significant weight reduction, lowering raw material consumption and production costs. It maintains outstanding mechanical properties, smooth surface finish and high dimensional stability of finished plastic parts. With superior heat resistance and wide compatibility with various thermoplastic resins, it is a premium lightweight additive for injection molding, extrusion and calendaring plastic products.
Core Features
20-40μm Uniform Fine Particle Size: Narrow particle size distribution ensures consistent foaming effect in all processing areas. No coarse particles or uneven expansion, delivering ultra-smooth product surface without streaks or particle marks.
Stable High-Temperature Foaming Performance: Excellent thermal resistance adapts to various high-temperature thermoplastic processing environments. Microspheres expand fully without rupture, collapse or premature foaming, ensuring stable batch production.
Superior Lightweight & Cost-Effective: Finer closed-cell structure brings higher lightweight efficiency. It greatly reduces plastic product density and raw material usage while keeping structural strength, effectively optimizing overall production costs.
Excellent Dispersion & Compatibility: Ultra-fine thermoplastic microspheres disperse evenly in all kinds of plastic melts. No agglomeration or precipitation, no negative impact on resin fluidity, hardness, toughness and surface gloss.
High Dimensional Stability: Uniform foaming structure effectively inhibits product shrinkage, warping and deformation during high-temperature processing. Improves finished product yield and dimensional accuracy significantly.
Eco-Friendly Physical Foaming: Pure physical thermal expansion principle, no chemical decomposition, low VOC and low odor. Complies with global environmental standards for industrial and daily plastic products.
