Stabilizers 5

Akcros Chemicals America: Stabilizers for Flexible Vinyl: AKCROS’ ABC Line-Foam Stabilizer/Activators: Akcros stabilizer/activators have been formulated to provide controlled, uniform gas evolution for the production of PVC foams utilizing azodicarbonamide as the blowing agent. The ABC series of blowing agent catalysts are primary materials and act as both heat stabilizers and gas generation activators. No secondary stabilizer is normally required. Thus, with the availability of such blowing agent catalysts, the use range of azodicarbonamide is extended to a significant degree.

ABC-1: Decomposition Range: 340 to 360F Activity Rate: High


ABC-6*: Decomposition Range: 390 to 400F Activity Rate: Low

ABC-7: Decomposition Range: 390 to 410F Activity Rate: Low

ABC-18: Decomposition Range: 340 to 360F Activity Rate: Medium


· *Note: ABC-6 functions as a stabilizer/de-activator resulting · in a controlled blow with very fine cell structure.

Rhein Chemie Corp.: STABAXOL Antihydrolysis Agents (Continued): Stabaxol I: CAS No.: 2162-74-5 Antihydrolysis Agent 2,2',6,6'-Tetraisopropyldiphenyl Carbodiimide Application: Stabaxol I is an effective stabilizer for use in polyester based plastics. The product actively scavenges acidic groups as well as water. The product significantly increases the resistance to hydrolysis of polyester based urethane elastomers. Staboxol I also increases the long term stability of Baycoll and Desmocoll based adhesives in hot humid climates. The addition of 0.5 parts of Stabaxol I per 100 parts of polyester approximately doubles the level of hydrolysis resistance at ambient temperature compared to an unstabilized elastomer. The addition of 2 parts of Stabaxol I per 100 parts of polyester will increase hydrolysis resistance about four fold at ambient temperature. The use of more than 2 parts by weight is not recommended, since Stabaxol I may leach from some end products. Also, Stabaxol I does not have the catalytic effect on the isocyanate-polyol reaction that Stabaxol M had. Product Description: Physical form: Yellowish waxlike substance Melting point: Approx. 40C Density: Approx. 0.95 g/ml at 50C Stabaxol I is soluble in selected organic solvents such as acetone, methylene chloride, toluene, and polyester.

3V Inc.: Antioxidants: ALVINOX/ ALVIPACK: The combined action of oxygen and heat during the life cycle of polymers (manufacture, processing, storage and end use) causes thermo-oxidation of materials. This phenomena generate a change in molecular weight that lead to modifications of physical and mechanical characteristics such as increase or decrease of Melt Flow, yellowing or discoloration, loss of gloss or transparency, chalking and superficial micro-cracks. After the superficial changes the degradation continues to greater extent thus decreasing the mechanical properties (elongation at break, tensile strength, impact strength, flexural modulus). With ongoing aging the characteristics of the plastic article are so modifed that it loses its usefulness. The thermal oxidation reaction can be inhibited as follows:

· using a primary antioxidant that inteferes with the chain propagation step

· through a radical termination reaction · using a secondary antioxidant that decomposes the

hydroperoxides. · Primary antioxidants belong to the hindered phenols chemical

family, called also "Radical Scavengers". Secondary Antioxidants belong to Phosphite/Phosphonite and Thioethers chemical family. The combination of both Antioxidant classes allows to achieve a synergistic effect.

Under the trade name Alvinox, 3V produces two primary antioxidants: Alvinox 100 and Alvinox FB, and one secondary antioxidant: Alvinox P. 3V also offers the synergistic blends of antioxidants under the trade name Alvipack. Blends that provide Long Term Heat Stability and Processing Stability in one product, simplify mixing and dosing operations. Examples of available blends are listed below: Alvipack Type: Concentration % Alvinox FB Alvinox P DSTDP Alvipack 11 50 50 --- Alvipack 12 33 67 --- Alvipack 122 20 40 40 Process Stabilization: Polymers are usually processed at high temperatures (180-350C) and if insufficiently stabilized they degrade. Addition of stabilizers minimize changes in melt flow index, limiting chain scission (e.g. in PP) and cross-linking (e.g. in PE) avoiding problems during processing. The usual method for evaluating the effectiveness of antioxidants under processing conditions is the multiple extrusion test in which changes in melt flow index and colour are measured after repeated passes in an extruder. Low volatility, high compatibility in polymer and thermal resistance are key properties for antioxidants during tranformation steps. Alvinox match these properties providing high performance results.

UV Absorbers 93

Harwick Standard Distribution Corp.: STANLIGHT UV Absorbers: UV Absorbers work by absorbing light energy before it has a chance to begin degradation, and changing it into harmless heat energy, which is dissipated throughout the substrate. UV absorbers are based on substituted hydroxybenzotriazoles, which are less prone to discoloration than absorbers based on hydroxybenzophenones.

Stanlight P UV Absorber: Stanlight P is economical but also volatile and less soluble in most solvents. Stanlight P is recommended especially for ambient cure systems, and for some resins in thick section. It is not recommended for two component urethane systems because of the possibility of the hydroxyl group on the stabilizer reacting with the isocyanate. (A similar situation is true with most HALS). Stanlight P can also be used in conjunction with Stanlight 770 to provide optimum protection to polyolefins in thick section, especially when pigmented with light-sensitive colorants. In addition, most coatings systems benefit from a combination of UV absorber and HALS.

Stanlight 770 UV Light Stabilizer: Stanlight 770 general purpose HALS recommended for a variety of materials. Especially recommended for polypropylene thick section, also polypropylene tape. Stanlight 770 can also be used in conjunction with Stanlight P to provide optimum protection to polyolefins in thick section, especially when pigmented with light-sensitive colorants. In addition, most coatings systems benefit from a combination of UV absorber and HALS. Stanlight 770 UV Light Stabilizer is a hindered amine light stabilizer. It is highly effective in the most demanding UV light stabilization applications including use in polypropylene, high-density polyethylene, EPDM, poly and all styrenic polymers. Stanlight 770 can be combined with UV absorbers to optimize a polymer’s UV light stabilization properties. It has no effect on the polymer’s color, as there is no absorption in the visual spectrum. Stanlight 770 is highly effective in applications exhibiting high surface areas or having large cross sections.


3V Inc.: UVASORB Light Stabilizers: Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers (HALS): UVASORB HA77 DF: Uvasorb HA77 DF is the most effective and most used low molecular weight HALS. Its monomeric structure makes it particularly suitable in the stabilization of thick plastic articles (>0.5 mm thick) A slow migration during time (years) increases the HALS concentration on the article surface where the UV degradation occurs. Uvasorb HA77 DF is highly effective and recommended for the light stabilization of polyolefins, olefin copolymers, PP elastomer blends, styrenic polymers, polyacetals and polyamides. The concentration of Uvasorb HA77 DF depends on the polymer type, the desired service life, and the formulation and the thickness of the plastic article. Typical dosages are between 0.05% and 0.5%. Low molecular weight stabilizers have some disadvantages such as: * too high migration rates for thin section applications * low resistance to extraction * poor resistance to thermal treatments To overcome these limits polymeric HALS were developed. 3V patented one of the most effective high molecular weight HALS: Uvasorb HA88.

Uvasorb HA88 FD: Uvasorb HA88 FD polymeric structure guarantees a molecular weight of about 3000 Dalton, superior to other similar products. Thanks to its high molecular weight and structure is very suitable for use in thin applications such as agricultural films, fibers, filaments and coatings to which confers an excellent Light and Long Term Heat Stability. Main features correlated to its structure and high molecular weight are: low volatility; high resistance to extraction; no effect on melt flow; low interaction with pigments. Uvasorb HA88 FD is used also in effective combinations with UV absorbers, low molecular weight HALS and antioxidants. The contribution of HALS to Long Term Heat Stability of polymers is already well documented in literature. The effect of HALS as Long Term Heat Stabilizers is competitive with traditional antioxidants up to 130C. This effect is particularly evident in PP Fibers in which Uvasorb HA88 FD is one of the most efficient and appreciated HALS in the market for the UV protection and also for the superior Long Term Heat Stabilization.

UV Absorbers 95

3V Inc.: UVASORB Light Stabilizers: Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers(Continued): Uvasorb HA78 FF: The combination of Uvasorb HA88 FD and Uvasorb HA77 DF gives very high light stability to polyolefins tapes and to the talc filled Polypropylene copolymer compounds usually used for automotive applications. The 50:50 blend of Uvasorb HA88 FD and Uvasorb HA77 DF is available under the trade name Uvasorb HA78 FF. Other advantages offered by 3V's HALS are: * High resistance to processing conditions (e.g. temperature) * High compatibility with a wide range of plastic materials * Low absorbtivity in visible region


3V Inc.: UVASORB Light Stabilizers: U.V. Absorbers: UV Absorbers (UVA) protect the polymers by absorbing the detrimental UV radiation responsible for their degradation. The protection mechanism exerted by UV Absorbers is based essentially on the absorption of UV radiation and consequent dissipation of the absorbed energy in a manner that does not lead to photooxidation, i.e. dissipation as heat. Hydroxy benzophenones and Hydroxyphenyl benzotriazoles are the UVA structures produced and studied by 3V. The large choice of structures allow them to cover all the application fields of different polymers. The light stability of an article is influenced by the polymer type, crystallinity, orientation degree, pigment type and concentration and also by the article thickness. The amount of radiation absorbed with an UVA is related to its concentration and extinction coefficient as well as to the sample thickness according to the Lambert Beer law. The internal layers far from the surface of the article are more protected than superficial ones. This is the main limitation of UVA that makes them suitable mainly for thick articles. Nevertheless the performance of UVA may be improved both in thin and thick articles when used in combination with HALS. 3V's UV absorbers family includes: Benzophenones: Uvasorb 3C Uvasorb 20H Uvasorb MET Uvasorb WP Benzotriazoles: Uvasorb SV Uvasorb S26 Uvasorb S27 Uvasorb S28

Frank B. Ross Co., Inc.: ROSS Wax No. 130, No. 145, No. 165: Petroleum waxes are used primarily to delay fusion and reduce the high melt viscosities associated with initial fusion in the extrusion of plastics. The most commonly used petroleum waxes are those melting at about 130 to 165F. This melting range represents carbon chains approximately 40 atoms long. Although the congealing point is the most common means of classifying petroleum based lubricants, it is not the determining factor in predicting external behavior. The extent of branching and presence of cyclic components greatly influence the external properties. Ross Wax No. 130, No. 145 and No. 165 are fully refined, high melting point petroleum waxes. They are widely used in the formulating of PVC and electrical wire and cable compounds, as well as other applications which require a lubricant which is effective in small quantities without danger of exudation.

Buckman Laboratories, Inc.: Successful Applications of BUSAN 11-M1 in Plastic and Rubber Compounds: Busan 11-M1 is a multifunctional barium metaborate pigment used as a fire retardant, fungus inhibitor, and UV light stabilizer in polyvinyl chloride and other plastic and rubber compounds. Typical of PVC products compounded with Busan 11-M1 are automotive tops and trims, inflatable buildings, pond liners, roofing, and plastic-coated fabrics such as tarpaulins and awnings. The effectiveness of Busan 11-M1 as a fire retardant is restricted to polymers containing a halogen donor or to which one can be combined. Bromine compounds are somewhat more effective than other halogens but chlorinated paraffin and chlorindic anhydride have performed very well. Experience has indicated that Busan 11-M1 can replace antimony trioxide in most fire retardant formulations. Subject to the degree of halogenation and the degree of fire resistance required. Replacement can be 50 to 100%. In addition to providing after-flame resistance, Busan 11-M1 also reduces the time of afterglow (i.e., flameless combustion) and in many formulations reduces the amount of smoke generation. Other advantages over antimony trioxide are the low refractive index of Busan 11-M1 which prevents interference in tint and dye requirements and the fungicidal activity that characterizes barium metaborate. Busan 11-M1 is well known as a fungicide for coatings and plastics. Its advantages in plastics and plastic-coated fabrics over conventional organic fungicides are longevity in the film and efficacy unaffected by UV exposure. Products particularly susceptible by fungal disfigurement and/or deterioration include pond liners, tarpaulins, awnings, and shower curtains. Busan 11-M1 provides UV light stabilization to most polymeric materials including PVC and glass-reinforced polyester. Its durability in these materials is outstanding and thus extends the performance of UV absorbers.

Specialty Products Co.: STYRID Styrene Suppressant Additive: Styrid is a styrene suppressant with a unique chemical formulation. Tests have proven that Styrid provides suppression rates in excess of 50% with no effect upon interlaminar bonding. Appearance: White translucent semi-liquid at room temperature Physical Data: Specific gravity: (H2O=1): <1 Weight: 7.40-7.55 lbs/gal Flash point: 100F Laminate bonding: (ASTM D2344) Effects: Styrid, when used properly in polyester resin, will reduce styrene emissions to conform to California Rule 1162 without causing delamination or secondary bonding problems. Application: To be used at room temperature at 0.6% to 1% by weight. Normal mixing procedures will disperse material completely. Agitation is required prior to use to assure proper consistency. Advantages:

* Reduces styrene emissions by 50% or higher * Has no effect on interlaminar bonding * Liquid form for easy handling * Reduces styrene odor * Material is used as supplied at ambient room temperature (no

heating or pre-diluting with solvents required). Styrene Suppressant Additives: These additives are materials that are currently available to the composite fabricator. They are most effective when using the open-molding processes and, when properly used, can reduce styrene emissions during the curing stage of the composite. Styrene suppressant additives such as Styrid are substances which, when added at a prescribed concentration to either unsaturated polyester, vinyl ester, or DCPD resins, will reduce the amount of styrene vapors escaping from the composites. They are effective primarily for open-molding processes during the curing stage of the composite. Current styrene suppressant formulations, in addition to the wax they contain, also have components which allow bonding between laminates while effectively reducing the amount of styrene vapor emitted as the composite cures. Styrene suppressant additives are supplied in either semi-liquid or solid form. They can be used as supplied, or diluted in organic solvents. Some require heating to make them flow before mixing into the resin while others, such as Styrid, do not. They are incorporated directly into the resin before it is catalyzed. The treated resin can be used immediately or kept in storage for further use.

UOP: UNILINK 4200 Diamine: Unilink 4200 is a unique aromatic diamine originally developed by UOP as a chain extender for polyurethane elastomers. As a 2-functional diamine, Unilink 4200 builds linear polymer networks, allowing the polyurethane formulator to control the degree of cross-linking by the addition of higher functional polyols. The reactivity of Unilink 4200 diamine is much lower than other aromatic amines and this low reactivity allows Unilink 4200 diamine to be used as an effective curing agent in both TDI and MDI formulations. Polymers cured with Unilink 4200 diamine generally exhibit longer pot lives and lower hardness with improved strength, adhesion, impact resistance and low temperature properties. Polyurethane foam systems also benefit from the use of Unilink 4200 Diamine.
