Tarpaulin
Superior Additives to Withstand Complex Production
The structure of clear tarpaulin films makes them highly diffusive, so they are a good replacement for conventional PE greenhouse cover in areas that suffer from hail, or have high-speed wind gusts. The superior mechanical properties of tarpaulin also make the material suitable as a replacement for thick HDPE geomembrane, and to be used as pond liner.
Because the production of high-quality tarpaulin involves several complex production methods, we have designed special additives for this application that are resistant to high extrusion temperatures with low plate out.
High chemical resistance UV
Tarpaulin films are produced at very high extrusion temperatures at which the market’s benchmark for UV with high chemical resistant is not stable. We have developed a UV MB that is suitable for these process temperatures, while also giving good UV stability to the polymer when high levels of pesticides are used.
Our Solutions

UV
UV Light Stabilizer Masterbatch
Long-term exposure to UV radiation compromises the integrity of plastic, making it brittle and prone to cracking or breaking. The masterbatches in Tosaf’s UV light stabilizer range eliminate or vastly reduce the effects of UV radiation and photo-oxidation, offering long-term polymer protection.
Highlights
-
Prevents premature polymer degrading and failure
-
Minimizes deterioration of mechanical properties
-
Extends high-quality surface appearance
CM
