ACR SP-401 – High-Performance PVC Processing Aid

Product Overview

Our ACR-401 (Model: SP-401) is a specialized acrylic processing aid engineered for SPC/PVC flooring production, reducing processing temperature to lower energy costs while increasing filler loading to reduce material expenses. It enhances melt strength prevents surface defects, and improves whiteness, delivering higher efficiency and superior finish at a reduced overall cost.

ACR-401: Product Features & Advantages

● High processing Efficiency: The ACR-401 PVC processing agent reduces plasticizing temperature by 10 to 15 °C, and energy consumption can be reduced while production line speed can increase greatly.

● Filler Compatibility: It allows a 10–15% increase in filler loading (e.g., CaCO₃) without compromising performance, therefore reducing raw material costs.

● Melt Strength: Prior to forming, ACR-401 increases the stretchability and strength of PVC melt with an excellent anti-drawing force to reduce sagging both in processing and post-vacuum formed products for high-quality results.

● Surface Quality: Excellent mold-release, no melt fracture, improving products' outsides and surfaces.

● Wide range of applications: The ACR-401 processing aid is suitable for many PVC applications, such as SPC flooring, rigid profiles and foam boards.

ACR-401: Application Scenarios & Value Propositions

● SPC & PVC Flooring Manufacturers

The ACR-401 PVC processing aid is engineered to maximize efficiency in high-output flooring production. It significantly reduces energy consumption by lowering processing temperatures and increases filler loading to cut raw material costs, directly boosting your profit margins while ensuring superior surface quality and dimensional stability.

● PVC Profile & Sheet Extruders

Achieve flawless extrusion runs with enhanced melt strength. ACR-401 prevents sagging and deformation in complex dies, allowing for higher line speeds and reduced scrap rates. Its compatibility with various formulations makes it an ideal processing aid for achieving a perfect finish on rigid profiles and large-format sheets.

● PVC Foam Board Producers

Create lighter, stronger, and more cost-effective foam products. The ACR-401 processing aid promotes uniform cell structure during foaming, allows for higher mineral filler content to reduce density, and improves overall board strength, giving you a critical competitive edge.

● General PVC Compounders

As a versatile and high-performance additive, ACR-401 provides a reliable solution for a wide range of rigid and semi-rigid PVC applications. It simplifies compound design, enhances processing window, and delivers consistent results batch after batch, ensuring end-product quality and reliability.
