Leave a comment

Advanced Polymer Trading FZC has partnered with Mitsui Chemicals to market, sell and distribute Milastomer, Mitsui’s Thermoplastic Olefinic Elastomer.

Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, has entered into an agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market, sell and distribute Mitsui’s Thermoplastic Olefinic Elastomer under the Milastomer brand.

As part of the Mitsui Chemicals Group, Mitsui Chemicals Europe serves the European, Middle East and African markets which are the sectors and markets targeted by APT. Its headquarters are in Dusseldorf which is home to the biggest Japanese community in Europe.

“Mitsui’s Milastomer is a first class Thermoplastic Olefinic Elastomer” said Mr. Hamid Amiri, APT’s Managing Director. “We are very pleased with this new agreement which builds on our existing partnership with Mitsui.”

Milastomer, which is particularly suited for the automotive industry where it is used for interior trims including dash boards, doors and headliners, is based on Mitsui’s years of expertise and experience in plastics and synthetic rubber manufacturing. Unlike traditional rubber, Milastomer does not need compounding or vulcanization by the end user and every grade of Milastomer can be molded or extruded similar to polyethylene and polypropylene. Also like PVC, Milastomer has excellent moldability when processed on calendering machines.

Leave a comment

Reflecting its dynamic focus and the need for excellent online representation in the digital age, APT has launched its new web site which improves on performance, has better information and easier accessibility and navigation.

Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, is pleased to announce the launch of its new web site. Following a period of consultation and redesign, the new web site improves on performance, has better information and easier accessibility and navigation.

Improvements to the web site are on several fronts. The improved performance comes due to technical changes in the underlying software which powers the web site and simultaneously it offers APT greater flexibility for content management. The redesign has ensured that better and clearer information is available online to past, present an future customers as well as perspective investors or employees. One of the key emphasis of the new design is to ensure east navigation and accessibility. The majority of the site’s rich information can be found with just one or two clicks.

“A solid, accessible online presence is essential in today’s business environment” said Mr. Hamid Amiri, APT’s Managing Director. “APT has always been a flexible and leading edge company, this is reflected in our redesigned web site.”

2011 has been an excellent year for APT so far, in January APT entered into an agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market, sell and distribute Mitsui’s adhesive resin ADMER. ADMER adhesive resin is a functionally modified polyolefin that serves as a tie layer in multilayer applications including steel pipes. To kick-off the agreement Mitsui Chemicals Europe joined APT at ArabPlast 2011 and provided pre-sales support and technical advice on ADMER.

APT Starts New Promotion Drive for ADMER Pipe Coating Solutions

Leave a comment

Advanced Polymer Trading FZC recently entered into a broad sales and distribution agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market Mitsui’s ADMER adhesive resin. As a result of that agreement APT have started a new campaign to promote ADMER as a steel pipe coating solution.

Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, has launched a new campaign to promote ADMER as a steel pipe coating solution. ADMER coated on steel pipes protects them from corrosion and weathering and so assures a long operating life time.

Earlier this year APT entered into an agreement with Mitsui Chemicals Europe to market, sell and distribute Mitsui’s adhesive resin ADMER. ADMER adhesive resin is a functionally modified polyolefin that serves as a tie layer in multilayer applications including steel pipes.

ADMER can be used to coat steel pipes using a three layer PE process (3LPE) or a three layer PP process (3LPP). For 3LPE coating the epoxy primer is applied onto the preheated steel pipe to provide an oxygen barrier. Next ADMER PE adhesive is applied to create a strong bond between the epoxy layer and the top coat PE which is applied to provide mechanical protection. The structure of 3LPP coatings corresponds to that of 3LPE, combining an epoxy primer, a PP top coat and a PP adhesive.

The polypropylene (PP) coating is particularly suitable for applications where high service temperature and excellent mechanical protection are mandatory. For both types of coatings ADMER is compatible with any kind of commercially available epoxy primers and polyethylene/ polypropylene top coats.

“Using ADMER in three layer PE coatings for pipelines has been possible since the 1980’s, now after three decades it is a popular solution” said Mr. Hamid Amiri, APT’s Managing Director. “And it is increasingly replacing single layer fusion bonded epoxy coatings.”

As a tie resin, ADMER can be used in many different applications and with many different materials including Polyamide (PA), EVOH, Polystyrene (PS), Polyester (PET, PETG), Polycarbonate (PC), Polyolefins (PP, PE) and of course epoxy.

APT and EVAL Europe nv Enter Into New Partnership to Promote EVAL Resins

Advanced Polymer Trading FZC has teamed up with EVAL Europe nv to market, sell and distribute EVAL resins.

Advanced Polymer Trading (APT), an international trading company specialising in the world wide trade of rubber, plastics and petrochemicals, has entered into an agreement with EVAL Europe nv

to market, sell and distribute EVAL resins. EVAL, which is the registered trademark for the ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer resins are characterised by their excellent processability and outstanding barrier properties.

EVAL polymers are particularly suited for food, medical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, agricultural & industrial packaging and automotive applications which perfectly fits the sectors and applications targeted by APT.

“We are very pleased and excited to be working with EVAL Europe” said Mr. Hamid Amiri, APT’s Managing Director. “EVAL is a great product and we are expecting lots of customer interest.”

One of the major applications of EVAL is as a functional barrier in food packaging. Keeping oxygen out, an EVAL layer preserves the flavour and the quality of the food. Even in cases where the food is more stable or specially treated, such as baby milk, EVAL barrier properties can be used to protect sensitive vitamin content.
