Applications

• Light stabilizers in plastics materials leads to a much reduced and significantly delayed loss of optical and/or mechanical properties and allows such plastics articles used in extended outdoor applications.
• Antioxidants protect polymers against thermo-oxidative degradation. This degradation not only occurs during melt processing but also continues during the life cycle of the final article both at room as well as at elevated temperatures.
• Antistatic agents used to reduce or eliminate the building-up of static electricity. Their role is to make a material or a surface slightly conductive, by being conductive itself, or by absorbing moisture from the air. The molecules of antistatic agents often have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic areas.
