Microbeads AS holds all the intellectual property rights covering the technology to produce perfect monosized polymer particles in an industrial scale. Microbeads AS patented technology secures that monodispersity is maintained throughout the process. The products are mainly composed of two different classes of polymers like polystyrene and polyacrylics having varying degrees of crosslinking. The polymer particles have a perfect spherical shape, are highly monosized and are made within a wide particle size range: 0.5 µm; 500 µm. Because of this unique technology perfect monosized and spherical shaped particles can be prepared to a predetermined size with a controllable molecular weight and crosslinking degree.


Adding Microbeads products in coating-, plastic processing- and cosmetics applications result in unique performance within the different application areas. Controllable particle size, monosized particles and sophisticated chemical and physical properties makes Spheromers®;, Calibre®; and Rondure®; one of the most preferred surface modifiers available today.



 

The worlds most perfect particles for coatings and paints


Spheromers®; are highly monosized particles composed of acrylic polymers. The particles have a perfect spherical shape and a very smooth surface. They are used as additives in coatings including paint and plastics film to introduce new and improved abrasion resistance, mar resistance, matting, cleanability, special surface effects, corrosion resistance, flow characteristics and flop control of metallics. Using monosized particles as additives will enhance your paint into next level.

Calibre®; is highly monosized crosslinked particles composed of styrenic polymers. The particles have a perfect spherical shape and a very smooth surface. They are used in applications for calibration of machinery and laboratory equipment.



Rondure®; is slow release additive systems for the coatings and plastics processing industry based on acrylic and styrene polymers. The monosized polymer particles contain additives that slowly leaks out of the polymer matrices. A slow release effect will greatly enhance the durability, lead to a prolonged additive effect and have a favourable influence on the environment.

Dynoseeds®; are thermoplastic or crosslinked polymer particles with controllable molecular weight and uniform particle size composed of acrylic and styrene polymers for application in coatings and plastics processing industry. Dynoseeds®; is a transparent, highly stable resin and one of our product Dynoseeds®; TS 140-51 is best characterized from its high melt flow index and uniform particle size distribution. Dynoseeds®; can be used as a dispersion agent for insoluble and solid fillers, additives and pigments in the plastics processing industry to obtain higher efficiency and lower cost.

Dynoseeds® TS are polymer particles (spheres) made from polystyrene monomer, and are manufactured by an patented process able to tailor-make particles according to specific applications. Dynoseeds® TS is best characterised from its high melt flow rate (MFR), its limited disturbance of the matrix GPPS’s physical properties and its limited degradation during high temperature.
