Function: Wax to protect rubber articles against cracking caused by ozone and weathering influences Use: Antilux 110, with its reduced solubility, migrates to the surface of the vulcanizates where it forms a complete protective film which remains stable at temperatures up to 40 °C. The formation of the protective film takes place at a moderate rate. Antiozonants and antioxidants are carried to the surface of the vulcanizates by the migration of Antilux 110. Application: Molded and extruded technical rubber articles, especially light-colored rubber articles, micro cellular rubber and cable coverings which are used at medium-high service temperatures. Antilux 110 meets the test specifications at ozone chamber temperatures of about 40 °C. The protection may be extended by means of blending with Antilux grades equipped with a higher melting range.
