TEMAD ANTIOX has been studied to protect the resins from the thermo-oxidative action during the critical phases of the production processes. Its protective function is essential when the transformation needs require the use of particularly high temperatures. Antioxidant additives act also long-term, preserving the characteristics of the finished product. During the production process, heating polymers creates free radicals that modify the chemical structure of the resins by generating gels and changing the length of polymer chains, resulting in loss and/or deterioration of their mechanical characteristics (change of MFI, worsening of gloss) and of their aesthetic properties, including discoloration.
TEMAD ANTIOX should be used as follows: the recommended use varies from 1% to 3% in critical processes. Keep in a cold and dry place.
