LyondellBasell (NYSE: LYB) includes the state-of-the-art KARO® 5.0 laboratory stretching machine from Brückner Maschinenbau into its portfolio. This latest addition to the research and development capabilities offered at the LyondellBasell (LYB) Technical Center in Akron, Ohio will greatly enhance the company's ability to develop and test masterbatch solutions for various oriented film applications.

The advanced technology of the KARO® 5.0 will enable LYB to:

  • Troubleshoot and test masterbatch solutions for diverse oriented film applications with greater accuracy and efficiency.
  • Create a closer match to masterbatch materials in real-world production processes, significantly reducing the time it takes to bring new products to market.
  • Improve the speed-to-market process by allowing customers to quickly identify and select the optimal masterbatch for their specific needs.

The KARO® 5.0 offers several cutting-edge features, including:

  • Multi-cast film capabilities that enable the testing of a wider range of masterbatch materials.
  • Stretch capabilities in both the machine direction (MD) and transverse direction (TD) to accurately simulate real-world production conditions.
  • Monitoring of various material characteristics like tension, elongation, torque, temperature, and thickness to ensure optimal performance and quality control.

The new equipment supports the company’s Advanced Polymer Solutions (APS) and Olefins and Polyolefins (O&P) business segments in the Americas. Testing is already underway for a variety of applications including protective films, food packaging and more.
