- Applications
Benetex OB-1 HP is recommended to increase the whiteness of polyester and polyamide (nylon) fibers as well as in high temperature engineering plastics, including polycarbonates, polyesters, and polyamides (nylon). It is also suitable for use in styrenic and acrylic polymers.
- Guidelines for Use
Recommended loading concentrations for Benetex OB-1 HP range between 50 and 1000 ppm (0.005-0.1%). The product can be used alone or in a variety of blends and combinations with other additives, including antioxidants, processing stabilizers, and light stabilizers. Higher load levels of Benetex OB-1 HP are required if it is used in combination with a UV absorber. The exact formulation to be used is dependent on the substrate, performance requirements, and other factors, and should be determined by the user based on testing to simulate actual conditions of use.
