Calyshield application

Calyshield™

Calyshield™ microcapsules encapsulate functional additives for improved performance and enhanced functionalities.

Calyshield™ microcapsules perfectly integrate into your material and disperse evenly.  We encapsulate lubricants, flame retardants, UV absorbers, antioxidants, pigments and many more.

With Calyshield™, you can avoid secondary reactions or limited compatibility and undesired migration.

Calyshield™ microcapsules can be activated by shear, pressure, or temperature to release your functional ingredient at the optimum time during processing. An example of this: Calyshield™-L lubricants can be released upon shear abrasion, providing lubrication at the moment of greatest friction. This enables longer-lasting products with lower use of lubricant.

FEATURES
