Protective film – VCI mechanism VCI – Volatising Corrosion Inhibitor – is a group of organic chemicals, a mixture of contact and vapor phase corrosion inhibitors. VCIs are added to the film to protect treated metals. VCI […]

High performance nucleating solutions enabling blown film extrusion with polypropylene. Developed by KAFRIT in cooperation with BASF. Better utilization of resources, energy, and film converting assets becomes essential to supply technical […]

UV radiation is intense enough to detach one or more electrons from the polymer molecule, thereby cutting and shortening the polymer chains and causing degradation of the mechanical properties. As a result, the product will become more […]

A wide range of blocking prevention solutions and BOPE additives that are becoming more common due to the demand for recyclable uniform materials […]

Today, due to reduction in the modern family unit, there is a growing demand for food packages that can be resealed a few times after the first use. Reclosability / Resealability is important in order to: Maintain the product’s freshness.  […]

Antimicrobial is used to describe substances which demonstrate the ability to reduce the presence of microorganisms, such as bacteria, mold, fungi and viruses. […]

Among the solutions: a family of bio-biodegradable polymers that feature high oxygen barrier properties, an additive package based on carriers from renewable sources, as well as an additive package focused on improving standard recycling products and increasing the use of recycled materials in the industry. […]

Flow instabilities are one of the major challenges of extrusion. They are also joined by the phenomenon of "dirt" buildup on the face of the die that necessitates shutting down the equipment for cleaning. Fortunately, polymer processing aids (PPA) come to our aid, producing a conveniently smooth sliding surface for flow on the metal surface and significantly reducing the problem. […]

Kafrit has developed a new computational method for estimating the heat load reduction of greenhouse films. The method allows theoretical testing of a variety of solutions before proceeding with field experiments. In addition, a new heat reducing additive based on titanium oxide nano particles has also been developed. […]

Kafrit has participated in the world’s largest trade fair for the plastics and rubber industry – K–2019 – which took place in October 2019. With more than 3,200 international exhibitors, we were proud to display the latest […]

Kafrit introduces new, plant-derived anti-static additives that support the sustainability trend and conform to various standards and global market requirements. […]

Ecocell is a new, patented technology that allows for a more precise and better foaming of a wide range of polymers and in a variety of processing methods - injection, extrusion and blow molding. The technology is offered by Kafrit, which recently acquired it as part of the company's expansion in the USA. […]
