The concentration of APorous expertise is in the thin porous film extrusion.
The term compounding implied the blending of polymers and additives to modify the properties of a polymer and achieve homogeneous mixture.  APorous specializes in custom plastic compounding.  A twin screw extruder is used to blend resins, reinforcing fillers, pigments, plasticizers, lubricants, antioxidants and curatives.  Vacuum is utilized to de-volatile low boilers.  
APorous has supplied color concentrate for packaging cast film extrusion, semi-compatible polymer-silica blends for blown film application and specialty polymer-glass blends for injection molding parts.
