- Product Highlights
- The use of our anti-static additives allows the adjustment of the surface and volume resistivity in various systems.
- The effect of Deuteron®’s anti-static additives is mainly based on surface migration and the ionic character of the cations.
- Deuteron® LE 512 is a solid, waxy material that needs to be diluted in a suitable solvent (water, alcohol or polar esters) prior to use. Alternatively, the material can be
- molten (temperatures between 95 °C and 110 °C) and used directly.
- Deuteron® LE 100 LV is a liquid product free of any carrier and thus easy to use without adding any potentially undesired solvents to a system.
- The products are miscible in all solvent mixtures commonly used in coatings, partly slight turbidity can occur.

- Applications
Deuteron® LE 100 LV is able to achieve resistivity ranges between 1x10⁵ und 1*10⁹ Ω (100 kΩ - 1 G Ω) - Anti-static properties according to EN ISO 20345.
Anti-static shoes 1x10⁵ und 1*10⁸ Ω (100 kΩ -100 MΩ) (according to EN 61340-4-3) ESD applications 1x10⁵ und 3,5*10⁷ Ω (100 kΩ -35 MΩ) (according EN 61340-5-1)
The effect of quaternary ammonium compounds is highly influenced by the type of system (resins, additives, pigments, etc.) and by the chosen measurement conditions.
Fields of application include- Electrostatic adjustment of spray paints
- PU systems (foam, shoe soles and casting resins)
- UV and EB curable systems
- PVC
- Floor coatings
- Synergistic wetting agent for carbon blacks, graphite and carbon fibers
- Dosage
Typical addition level 0.2% - 5%. The exact quantities to be used depend on the system and must be determined individually for the intended application.
- Processing Information
- Deuteron® LE 512 can be used to prepare an interme- diate by diluting at room temperature in suitable polar solvents or water.
- Direct processing is only possible after melting. The melting temperature should be in a range of 95 °C - 110 °C and to ensure proper distribution the molten product should be added while stirring.
- Deuteron® LE 100 LV can be added to the system at any time during the production process or they can be used as post addition additives to further adjust resistivity.
