Evonik works with two new partners to distribute the groups’ high-performance polymers.
Since October 1, 2022, TER Chemicals already took over the distribution of VESTOSINT® polyamide 12 powders across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and effective November 1, 2022, Biesterfeld Performance Rubber GmbH handles the distribution of VESTENAMER® rubber additive in the EMEA region except Italy.
Increase in Product Availability
"
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," said Dr. Peter Hannen, head of the Powders and Specialties Market Segment at Evonik.
“
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,” added Hannen.
According to the signed distribution agreements between Evonik and TER Chemicals and Biesterfeld Performance Rubber, at the respective effective dates, Evonik’s customers will receive their VESTOSINT® and VESTENAMER® high-performance materials with exactly the same quality and specifications as before.
Additionally, the agreements also let Evonik customers enjoy service offers from the new distribution partners.
Products Features & Its Applications
VESTOSINT® high-performance powders are used in demanding powder coating applications as well as in lacquer and paint formulations. They are produced in a special process and are characterized, among other things, by a special morphology.
It makes Evonik's PA12 powders particularly suitable for coating metals or producing fiber composites. Furthermore, the VESTOSINT® fine powders are also used as additives to improve the properties of coatings.
VESTENAMER® rubber additive is the most versatile polyoctenamer and can solve a number of challenges in the compounding and processing of rubber. It can improve the dynamic properties of vulcanizate and can be used, among other things, to recycle old rubber.
