Antioxidant A 1076
Product code RXSOL-81-8161-025
It is an effective, non-discoloring stabilizer that provides excellent long-term heat stability by preventing thermo-oxidative degradation during processing and service life.
Description
Antioxidant A 1076 is a sterically hindered phenolic antioxidant. It is an effective, non-discoloring stabilizer that provides excellent long-term heat stability by preventing thermo-oxidative degradation during processing and service life. This antioxidant also provides good compatibility with resins and excellent extraction resistance. It can be used in a wide variety of organic substrates such as plastics, synthetic fibers, elastomers, adhesives, waxes, oils, and fats.
Material Description: Antioxidant and Thermal Stabilizer
Application
Antioxidaint A 1076 is a primary antioxidant that can be applied in polyolefins, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutene-1 and other polymers such as engineering plastics, styrene homo- and copolymers, polyurethanes, elastomers, adhesives, and other organic substrates. This high molecular weight phenolic antioxidant also provides excellent stabilization in other polymers such as styrenics, rubber modified styrenics including ABS, SAN and segmented block copolymers, saturated and unsaturated elastomers, PVC, urethane and acrylic coatings, adhesives and petroleum products.
Precautions
Packaging:
Antioxidant A 1076 is available in powder form in a 25 kg net weight, with an inner PE liner.
Storage:
This product may be stored up to two years in a sealed container. Containers should be stored in a cool, dry area. Extended storage at elevated temperatures or exposure to direct heat or sunlight could reduce product life. Keep containers sealed when not in use.
