SEMITI 960 vs Chemours Ti-Pure R-960
SEMITI 960 matches Ti-Pure R-960's amine-compatible HALS-friendly surface treatment for engineering plastics masterbatch.
Ti-Pure R-960 is Chemours' premium plastics-masterbatch grade — amine-compatible surface treatment for HALS-stabilized outdoor plastics, plus exceptional thermal stability for engineering plastic compounding at 280–300°C. SEMITI 960 is positioned as the direct alternative for ABS, PC, PA masterbatch and high-load (60%+) PE/PP masterbatch.
