Poly­tives has devel­oped new addi­tives for plas­tics that are them­selves (branched) poly­mers and there­fore do not change the chem­i­cal prop­er­ties of the plas­tic. Poly­tives devel­ops an adapted addi­tive for dif­fer­ent appli­ca­tions and types of plas­tic, e.g. to offer non-toxic plas­ti­ciz­ers, easy-flow­ing paints, shrink reduc­ers or opti­mized mate­ri­als for 3D printing.
