Flow Modifiers
Kurt discusses the various types of additives that are used to alter the flow characteristics of resins.
Broadly speaking, they can be grouped into two types; those that mix mechanically with the resin to reduce friction when flowing, and those that directly target a key area of the material's chemistry to alter viscosity (resistance to flow).
