Function: Wax to protect rubber articles against ozone and weathering influences. Use: Antilux 600, 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 about 40 °C. The formation of the protective film takes place at a fast rate. Antiozonants and antioxidants are carried to the surface of the vulcanizate by the migration of Antilux 600. Application: Technical molded and extruded articles, microcellular rubber and cable coverings which are used at medium high service temperatures. Antilux 600 meets test specifications at ozone chamber temperatures of about 35 °C. The protection may be extended by means of blending with higher melting Antilux grades Information provided by Lanxess. |
