Kraton Corp. recently launched its CirKular+ additives, which act as compatibilizers and enhance the performance of a wide range of materials. "Our CirKular+ additive products enable us to meet increasing consumer demand, performance requirements, and emerging regulations for circular plastics solutions from end product design [for] recyclability to cost efficiency," said Bob Hall, senior director of global marketing. "This will allow us to support the plastic value chain's mission to reduce virgin plastic use while increasing product recyclability and post-consumer resin (PCR) content." CirKular+ products can be used with PCR and post-industrial plastic recycling streams, bioplastics, and in a combination of virgin and recycled plastics, according to the company. The additives assist with the recycling of typically non-compatible materials and difficult-to-recycle engineering polymers.
