Polymers can be susceptible to oxidation when they come into contact with oxygen, resulting in degradation. Thermal oxidation can also occur when high temperatures are used to manufacture end-use polymer products, affecting the raw material. Antioxidant additives added during manufacturing are an effective solution to protect and stabilize the polymer material. Antioxidants can help:
Cesa™ Nox A4R is a specialized antioxidant additive that stabilizes polyolefins during processing, preventing typical defects such as discoloration, gels, and black spots — in initial, and future conversion steps and recycling loops.
MoreCesa™ Nox Additives target free radicals, terminating oxidation reactions and preserving polymer properties through one or more processing steps or cycles, including recycling.
