SWP™ is a fibrillated polyolefin fiber formed by flush processing. Unlike standard cut resin fiber, its fibrillated structure allows high fiber diameter distribution (branch portion 2 μm to stem portion 30 μm) for large specific surface volume. SWP™ is a unique additive which acts as a modifier in enhancement agents, thixotropic agents, and dispersal agents and as a functionalizing agent in binders and thermal processing aids.
Unique fiber structure made possible by Mitsui Chemicals' proprietary, state-of-the-art manufacturing technology
Supports highly efficient particle trapping
