Aurorium offers a full spectrum of SMA and SMANPMI copolymers and compounds for engineering plastic and specialty chemical applications. XIBOND™ blend optimizers have a very broad molar mass range and a broad maleic anhydride variation. For engineering plastics the SMA/ABS based compounds have varying impact modification levels and glass fiber content.

Many polymers are used within the compounding industry, each polymer has unique properties. Product developers are always looking to combine polymers to create new innovative blends, compounds or alloys with balanced properties. The XIBOND™ blend optimizers portfolio consists of different products which are suitable to enhance the properties of polymer blends that are used in industries such as automotive, building and construction, consumer goods, electrical and electronics, sports and leisure.

The XIBOND™ portfolio consists of styrenics with functional Maleic Anhydride (MA) or Glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) groups. These functional styrenics affect the blend morphology or the surface characteristics of several polymer systems to fulfill the continuous needs to create new innovative blends.
