Great content comes from great expertise. We’re proud to launch Styrenic Copolymers with INEOS Styrolution

Thank you to the INEOS Styrolution team for sharing their knowledge and helping us turn a complex material family into something clear, practical and easy to learn from.

Polymer, compound, blend, monomer, copolymer: do you know the difference?

There are numerous ways to measure moisture in polymers, and having one on the shop floor is key.

The drying oven remains the reference method for many standards, but results take hours.

Karl Fischer titration is water-specific and highly precise, though it needs reagents, a lab, and trained staff.

Halogen moisture analysis sits in a different place: fast enough for production decisions, suitable for granules at the sample weights plastics require, and simple enough for a single operator to run beside the machine. ASTM D6980 recognises it as a standard test method for determining moisture in plastics by loss in weight.

None of the three is universally better. They answer different questions. Knowing which question you are asking is where good QC starts.

We cover all three, and when each one fits, in our new module with Mettler-Toledo International, Inc .

Celebrating International Translation Day 🌍

Today, we want to thank the colleagues who help our message reach the world by translating posts, articles and technical content across multiple languages.

By making information accessible, clear and accurate, they support collaboration and strengthen relationships across markets and cultures.

In a global industry like plastics and polymers, translation does more than convert words. It helps facilitate collaboration, keeps knowledge flowing and strengthens relationships with customers and partners worldwide.

To everyone who has helped translate content for Ultrapolymers: Thank you! Your work connects people, bridges languages, and brings our global community closer together. 🤝

Moisture is one of the few quality parameters that change after the material leaves the supplier.

A batch that met specification at dispatch can pick up moisture during transport, in storage, or on the shop floor before it ever reaches the machine. For hygroscopic polymers, this happens faster than most people expect.

The consequences show up downstream: splay and surface defects, reduced mechanical strength, hydrolytic degradation in materials like PET and polyamides. By the time the part is moulded, the cause is no longer obvious.

Which leaves a practical question: how do you know your resin is actually dry?

Our new Academy module, created with Mettler-Toledo International, Inc , works through what moisture does across polymer families and how it is measured in practice. 20 minutes, and available now.

We’re approaching the end of Day 1 at Medical Technology Ireland, and what a great day it has been!

The good news is that we’re only halfway through the show. The Ultrapolymers Ireland team will be back tomorrow, ready to answer your questions about plastics, regulatory requirements and medical applications.

If you haven’t visited us yet, come and say hello on Ground Floor, Stand 8. We look forward to seeing you!

Colour plays an important part in bringing a brand to life.

Behind the scenes, our team has been exploring shades, comparing samples and making sure the colours used across our FAKUMA stand feel unmistakably Ultrapolymers.

However, colour is about much more than branding.

For our customers, the right colour can be an important part of a product’s identity, appearance and final application. From moulded-in-colour automotive components and medical devices to electrical housings and consumer products, tailored coloured compounds can help bring ideas to life.

At Fakuma Messe , our team will be ready to discuss your application and explore how our material expertise, technical support and access to bespoke compound solutions could help move your project forward. Ultrapolymers’ application portfolio includes moulded-in-colour automotive components, medical-device housings, connectors and electrical enclosures.

We’re pleased to launch a new Academy module: Mastering Moisture Control in Polymers, created in collaboration with Mettler-Toledo International, Inc.

Moisture is one of the most consequential variables in polymer processing, and one of the hardest to see. It affects melt behaviour, surface quality, mechanical strength, and long-term performance. For many engineering polymers, tolerances are tight and getting it right depends on two things: the right tool, and the right method.

Mettler Toledo brings decades of expertise in halogen moisture analysis for the plastics industry, including validated drying methods for more than twenty polymer families and recognition under ASTM D6980. We bring the material knowledge and the learning design. Together, the module covers what moisture does to polymers, how the main measurement methods compare, and the practical disciplines that make results reliable.

If you work with hygroscopic or moisture-sensitive materials, whether in purchasing, quality, technical support, or production, this module gives you a clearer basis for the decisions you make every day.

Twenty minutes. Practical throughout. No prior expertise required.

When exhibiting at a Trade Show, there is always more going on behind the scenes than you might imagine

We usually show you the finished result, but this year we wanted to share a glimpse of the work that goes into preparing for FAKUMA.

Here is Meggy working on some of the assets you will see at the show. It takes plenty of planning, creativity and teamwork to bring an exhibition presence together.

The same is true when bringing a product to market. Behind every successful application is considerable work, from identifying the right material and designing the part, to running simulations, exploring regulatory requirements, navigating technical challenges, and building a reliable supply solution.

At FAKUMA, the Ultrapolymers team will be ready to discuss your products, applications and challenges, and explore how our polymers, our people and our solution-focused approach could support you.

Come and see our stand in all its glory at Fakuma Messe.

Visit us at Fakuma 2026!

In about a month, from 12 to 16 October, we will be on site in Friedrichshafen, Germany. The preparations for the show are well underway, from training sessions to fine-tuning all the elements that make a trade show run smoothly.

Take the opportunity to meet our team in person. Hall A5 | Booth 5211

We look forward to your visit!
