Guard™ LAO-325

1 of 1 products in this brand
Guard™ LAO-325 is Heat is a necessary function for molding plastics. However, under higher than normal processing temperatures, it may be necessary to add an additional stabilizer to maintain the integrity of the polymer. Degradation of polymers, due to excessive heat, can have an effect on the process, product stability and screw barrel contamination. Another factor of concern for the industry is the increased use of PCR. Antioxidant additions to the combinations of virgin and PCR resins can provide the heat stability needed to maintain a healthy polymer. Our solutions range from a single functional antioxidant, for processing with higher heat conditions, to multifunctional products that improve heat stability as well as long-term heat aging.

    Applications

    Process

    • Injection Molding

    Problem

    • Higher profile heats and shear heat will start to degrade resin.

    Solution

    • Add +Guard™ LAO-325 to the process which will protect the resin from higher heats and degradation, and therefore reduce contamination from building up on screws and barrels. The end result is a better product and less downtime.
