NOF EUROPESpeciality ChemicalsSpecialty PolymersMolecular weight control Molecular weight control NOFMER® MSD NOFMER® MSD is a suitable Chain Transfer Agent (CTA) for polymers containing styrene such as PS, AS polymers or SB latexes. In addition, NOFMER®MSD can be used as an addition agent with functions of a crosslinking co-agent and a retarder for LDPE crosslinking. Feature of NOFMER®MSD It works as a chain transfer agent (CTA) for PS, ASpolymers or SB latexes, etc. It works as a crosslinking co-agent and a retarder for LDPEcrosslinking (XLPE) It has less odor compared tomercaptans or other retarders (BHT etc). Application NOFMER® MSD is used in the production of coating materials as a CTA or covering of high–voltage electric cables as a crosslinking co-agent and a retarder. In the point of view of the chain transfer constant, NOFMER® MSD is a suitable CTA because an excellent transfer constant should be between 0.01 and 1.0. Furthermore, NOFMER® MSD can control low molecular weight and molecular weight distribution than NDM. In addition, NOFMER® MSD can reduce molecular weight with increasing dosage, while keeping molecular weight distribution. Technical Data NOFMER® MSD can make a highly crosslinked polymer as a crosslinking co-agent at crosslinking temperature (180˚C). NOFMER® MSD has well balanced results in both torque value and scorch time. NOFMER®MSD as a crosslinking co-agent and a retarder Molecular weight reduction Table.
