Fields of application: Stabilization master batch for polypropylene/polyethylene for stabilization of thermoplastic material in the extruder during shut-down periods to prevent formation of black spots Examples: Stabilization of PP/PE in the extruder during shut-down during week-ends or maintenance stops.Mode of action and advantages: ADD-VANCE® Start & Stop is a ready-for-use stabilization masterbatch. ADD-VANCE® Start & Stop contains a synergistic blend of processing stabilizers and heat stabilizers. Processing stabilizers protect the polymer during processing operations at high temperature by decomposing reactive hydroperoxides. Heat stabilizers inhibit the thermooxidative degradation of the end product by radical scavenging reaction Advantages: Excellent stabilization of thermoplastic polymers. Prevents the development of “black spots” during shut-down and start-up of thermoplastic extruding equipment. Can be processed like general thermoplastic granules, processing conditions (temperatures) do not need to be changed. Non-sticking pellets, dust free dosing. Safe and easy handling, will not damage cylinder, screw, die, and nozzle systems of the machines, even when used repeatedly. Former ADDCOMP product line, acquired by BYK. |
