APT and Mitsui Chemicals Europe Enter Into New Distribution Agreement For Milastomer

Advanced Polymer Trading FZC has partnered with Mitsui Chemicals to market, sell and distribute Milastomer, Mitsui’s Thermoplastic Olefinic Elastomer.

Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, has entered into an agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market, sell and distribute Mitsui’s Thermoplastic Olefinic Elastomer under the Milastomer brand.

As part of the Mitsui Chemicals Group, Mitsui Chemicals Europe serves the European, Middle East and African markets which are the sectors and markets targeted by APT. Its headquarters are in Dusseldorf which is home to the biggest Japanese community in Europe.

Milastomer, which is particularly suited for the automotive industry where it is used for interior trims including dash boards, doors and headliners, is based on Mitsui’s years of expertise and experience in plastics and synthetic rubber manufacturing. Unlike traditional rubber, Milastomer does not need compounding or vulcanization by the end user and every grade of Milastomer can be molded or extruded similar to polyethylene and polypropylene. Also like PVC, Milastomer has excellent moldability when processed on calendering machines.

APT Starts New Promotion Drive for ADMER Pipe Coating Solutions

Advanced Polymer Trading FZC recently entered into a broad sales and distribution agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market Mitsui’s ADMER adhesive resin. As a result of that agreement APT have started a new campaign to promote ADMER as a steel pipe coating solution.

Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, has launched a new campaign to promote ADMER as a steel pipe coating solution. ADMER coated on steel pipes protects them from corrosion and weathering and so assures a long operating life time.

Earlier this year APT entered into an agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market, sell and distribute Mitsui’s adhesive resin ADMER. ADMER adhesive resin is a functionally modified polyolefin that serves as a tie layer in multilayer applications including steel pipes.

ADMER can be used to coat steel pipes using a three layer PE process (3LPE) or a three layer PP process (3LPP). For 3LPE coating the epoxy primer is applied onto the preheated steel pipe to provide an oxygen barrier. Next ADMER PE adhesive is applied to create a strong bond between the epoxy layer and the top coat PE which is applied to provide mechanical protection. The structure of 3LPP coatings corresponds to that of 3LPE, combining an epoxy primer, a PP top coat and a PP adhesive.

The polypropylene (PP) coating is particularly suitable for applications where high service temperature and excellent mechanical protection are mandatory. For both types of coatings ADMER is compatible with any kind of commercially available epoxy primers and polyethylene/ polypropylene top coats.

As a tie resin, ADMER can be used in many different applications and with many different materials including Polyamide (PA), EVOH, Polystyrene (PS), Polyester (PET, PETG), Polycarbonate (PC), Polyolefins (PP, PE) and of course epoxy.

APT and Mitsui Chemicals Europe Forge New Partnership to Promote ADMER Tie Layer Resin

Advanced Polymer Trading FZC has joined forces with Mitsui Chemicals to market, sell and distribute Mitsui’s new adhesive resin ADMER.

Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, has entered into an agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market, sell and distribute Mitsui’s new adhesive resin ADMER. ADMER adhesive resin is a functionally modified polyolefin that serves as a tie layer in multilayer applications such as films, tubes, bottles, sheets, pipes, tanks or as coupling agent in various composites.

Mitsui Chemicals Europe, which is part of its parent Mitsui Chemicals Group, serves the European, Middle East and African markets and perfectly fits the sectors and markets targeted by APT. Its European headquarter is located in Dusseldorf which is home to the biggest Japanese community in Europe.

ADMER is a tie layer resin and by thermal reaction adheres to Polyamide (PA), EVOH, Polystyrene (PS), Polyester (PET, PETG), Polycarbonate (PC), Polyolefins (PP, PE) and metals such as steel and aluminium. ADMER provides excellent adhesion durability allowing ADMER and the bonded substrate to be boiled and hot filled. Also as ADMER is based on polyolefins or copolymers, it retains the physical properties of each polyolefin or copolymer including mechanical strength, heat resistance, chemical resistance and recyclability.

To kick-off the agreement Mitsui Chemicals Europe recently joined APT at ArabPlast 2011 and provided pre-sales support and technical advice on ADMER.
