The new partnerships between Evonik, TER Chemicals and Biesterfeld Performance Rubber GmbH will ensure flexible and reliable distribution.
Evonik
has announced that it has reached two new distribution agreements for its high-performance polymers: TER Chemicals is distributing VESTOSINT® polyamide powders across the EMEA region since October, while Biesterfeld Performance Rubber GmbH is distributing VESTENAMER® rubber additive in the same region (except from Italy) since 1st November.
The VESTOSINT high-performance powders
are used in demanding coating applications as well as in lacquer and paint formulations. They are characterised by a special morphology, suitable for coating metals or producing fibre composites, and are also used as additives to improve the properties of coatings.
The VESTENAMER® rubber additive has been used in the rubber industry for many years, as the versatile polyoctenamer can solve several challenges in the compounding and processing of rubber: they improve the dynamic properties of vulcanizate and can be used to recycle old rubber.
“We are very pleased to have TER Chemicals and Biesterfeld Performance Rubber as reliable partners who have intact and flexible supply chains, and a strong customer focus for our high-performance materials. The new partnerships are intended to increase the product availability in relevant industrial markets such as metal coating, lacquer and paint formulations as well as rubber recycling,” has declared Dr. Peter Hannen, the head of the Powders and Specialties division of Evonik.
