Anti-Moisture Powder

Anti-Moisture / Desiccant Powder

An off-white high-activity desiccant powder that binds the moisture in virgin and recycled PE and PP as the material heats, before it can turn to steam, preventing silver streaks, pinholes, bubbles and voids in the finished part.

Product Overview

What is Anti-Moisture Powder?

Anti-Moisture Powder is an off-white, free-flowing high-activity desiccant powder. Plastic resins, especially recycled and reprocessed material, absorb moisture from the air, and when the melt heats up that water flashes to steam and ruins the part, leaving silver streaks and splay, pinholes, bubbles and voids. It is an industrial additive that goes into the resin on your production line.

Blended into the resin before it enters the line, Anti-Moisture Powder chemically binds that water so the plastic melts cleanly, often with no separate drying stage. It works with virgin and recycled PE and PP on injection moulding, extrusion and blow moulding lines, and comes in four grades matched to how wet and inconsistent your feed is.

Grades

Matched to your feed

Which grade you need depends on how wet your material is and what you make. Tell us both, and we'll recommend the right grade and amount.

01
Dynamic anti-moisture powder

Dynamic

Our top grade. Fast, high-capacity moisture removal that mixes in evenly and stays stable even with wet, inconsistent scrap, for a smooth, glossy finish. Made for recycling plants and high-moisture feed, where ordinary powders fall short.

02
Energetic anti-moisture powder

Energetic

Our premium grade for recycled material, especially black and dark-coloured products. It handles feed that varies in quality and moisture, keeping processing stable and giving a cleaner, more consistent surface finish.

03
Poly-Plus 60 anti-moisture powder

Poly-Plus 60

Our standard grade. Stronger moisture removal than the economy grade, for smoother processing and better control of silver streaks, bubbles and pinholes in regular recycling. Keeps output quality steady.

04
Poly-Plus 40 anti-moisture powder

Poly-Plus 40

Our economy grade. A cost-effective moisture absorber for everyday recycling and reprocessing, with dependable moisture pickup and easy handling. Reliable defect control at the lowest cost.

Common Questions

Anti-Moisture Powder FAQ

What is Anti-Moisture Powder used for?

It removes moisture from plastic resin before processing. Recycled and virgin polymers pick up water from the air; when the melt heats up, that water turns to steam and causes silver streaks, pinholes and bubbles. Blended into the resin, Anti-Moisture Powder binds the water so the part comes out clean, often without a separate drying step.

Which grade should I use?

Poly-Plus 40 is our economy grade for routine reprocessing; Poly-Plus 60 is the standard grade; Energetic is a premium grade for recycled and dark-coloured products; Dynamic is our top grade for recycling plants and high-moisture feed. Tell us your resin and moisture level and we'll recommend the grade and dose.

Which polymers does it work with?

Virgin and recycled polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), on injection moulding, extrusion and blow moulding lines. Other polymers can be run after a trial. Tell us your resin and we will send a trial sample.

Can I get a trial sample?

Yes. Tell us your line and feed and we'll send a trial quantity with dosing guidance.

What is the minimum order?

It depends on the grade and how much you need. Tell us your line, the grade and the quantity you are planning, and we'll quote the minimum along with the price. A smaller trial quantity can be arranged for a first order.
