About Specialty Polymers
Specialty polymers are used to give a desired feature in specific
applications. Most of the specialty polymers are used in small quantities and
are priced at a premium. In contrast to commodity polymer, specialty polymers
are more flexible because of the high costs associated and changing nature of
raw materials, operating conditions, and end-user needs.
