AXEL Plastics Research Laboratories, Inc. (“AXEL”), a leading manufacturer of proprietary external and internal mold releases and process aid additives, is pleased to introduce a new process aid additive with reduced coefficient of friction properties to the market. TD INT-33LSER is a unique 100% active additive designed to incorporate directly into resins.
