Grafted Polyolefins are specialty plastics that have undergone a chemical process known as grafting, where specific functional groups or polymers are chemically bonded to the base polyolefin backbone. This modification can result in improved material properties such as compatibility with other polymers, adhesion, thermal stability, and enhanced processability. Polyolefins, which include polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), are widely used due to their chemical inertness, ease of processing, and cost-effectiveness. The modification through grafting expands the application range of polyolefins into areas that require more customized functionalities. Grafted polyolefins are used in an array of industries from automotive and aerospace to packaging and consumer goods. They are particularly valuable in composite materials, compatibilizers for polymer blends, and in the enhancement of interfacial properties between dissimilar materials. Companies active in the grafted polyolefins market are largely chemical and material manufacturers. Some noteworthy participants include LyondellBasell Industries, which is one of the largest plastics, chemicals, and refining companies worldwide; Mitsui Chemicals, a Japanese multinational which delivers a diverse range of materials and products; and ExxonMobil Chemical, known for its broad expertise in the chemical industry. Other companies specializing in grafted materials include Eastman Chemical Company, with its portfolio of advanced materials, and Arkema Group, which offers innovative and specialized chemical solutions tailored to a wide range of industries.
