IRGANOX 245 (Plastics)
IRGANOX 245 (Plastics)
Irganox 245 is a sterically hindered phenolic antioxidant particularly suitable for organic substrates. It protects the substrates against thermo-oxidative degradation during manufacturing, processing and end-use. Irganox 245 is odorless, of low volatility, has a good color stability and exhibits high extraction resistance.
Applications for IRGANOX 245
Irganox 245 is effective in styrene polymers, particularly impact modified polystyrenes, ABS, MBS, SB and SBR-latices as well as in POM homo- and copolymers. It is also very useful for the stabilization of polyurethanes, polyamides, thermoplastic polyesters, PVC and other polymers. In addition to imparting thermostability to the finished polymer Irganox 245 is effective as chain stopper during PVC polymerization.
