Abstract

Polymer additive concentrates comprising (a) between about 10 and about 80 weight percent of a polymer additive; (b) between about 2 and about 50 weight percent of an absorbant material which is a consolidated blend of spurted polyolefin pulp treated with a wetting agent, and wood fluff pulp; and (c) between about 5 and about 80 weight percent polymer, possess unexpectedly higher additive loading as well as exhibiting admirable properties when employed in polymers which are extruded into clear films. In addition, a process for manufacturing such concentrates is described.
