Description
VinFlex 10P — Desiccant for Filled Polymers
What Is VinFlex 10P ?
VinFlex 10P is a chemical desiccant for filled polymer compounds. Added directly to the compound, it chemically reacts with moisture during processing — preventing the pinholes, blistering, silver streaks, and porosity that ruin compound quality and yield.
Manufactured by Vin Group, VinFlex 10P is designed for compounders working with filled polymers where entrapped moisture causes processing defects.
The Problem: Moisture Defects in Filled Polymers
At processing temperatures of 140°C–170°C, entrapped moisture in filled compounds converts into vapour and gas. As that vapour tries to escape the melt, it leaves behind:
- Pinholes
- Blistering
- Rough surface finish
- Porosity
- Silver streaks
- Loss of physical properties
If moisture remains trapped, it also causes poor cell formation and voids, further degrading product quality.
For compounders, these defects translate directly into scrap, rejected lots, and lost margin.
How VinFlex 10P Works
VinFlex 10P chemically reacts with H₂O molecules during their conversion into vapour and gas. The reaction forms stable compounds at high processing temperatures, preventing the formation of free vapour and gas that would otherwise damage the product during processing.
The result: moisture is neutralised before it can create defects.
Benefits of VinFlex 10P
- Eliminates pinholes, porosity, blistering, and silver streaks
- Improves surface finish and gloss
- Prevents void formation and the loss of physical and mechanical properties
- Ensures consistent quality in filled polymer compounds
Why VinFlex 10P vs Physical Drying Methods
| Approach | What It Does | The Trade-Off |
| Oven heating | Removes surface moisture | High energy cost, time-consuming, risks material degradation from prolonged drying |
| Hot-air drying | Removes free moisture | High energy cost, can deteriorate material properties over time |
| VinFlex 10P | Chemically locks moisture during processing | Adds its own weight to batch — negligible cost increase, no extra cycle time |
Recommended Dosage & Method of Use
1.5 % – 3 % (by weight) of the total batch size
Actual dosage depends on the polymer type, processing conditions and level of filler loading
