Plastic Additives
BASF has a comprehensive range of Plastic Additives
Irganox
Irgafos
Antioxidant: Irganox comprises the broadest range of antioxidants for the use in organic substrates such as plastics, synthetic fibers and elastomers. Irganox ensures long-term thermal and process stability (color and viscosity retention) in a wide variety of applications.
Tinuvin
Uvinul
Chimassorb
Light Stabilizers: A comprehensive range of solutions to mitigate plastic degradation exposed to harmful ultraviolet radiation and enabling outstanding service life duration.
UV Absorbers (UVAs): slow down the degradation process by preferentially absorbing harmful ultraviolet radiation and dissipating it as thermal energy.
Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers (HALS): are very efficient stabilizers for polymers and especially polyolefins. They do not absorb UV radiation, but inhibit degradation of the polymer by scavenging radicals.
Tinopal
Optical Brightener: Tinopal OB is a high molecular weight optical brightener (fluorescent whitening agent) of the thiophenediyl benzoxazole class, suitable for the optical brightening of polymers at all stages of processing.
Irgasurf
Anti-scratch: is a highly effective additive which provides excellent scratch and mar resistance
Irgastat
Anti-stat: polymeric systems based on polyamide/polyether block amides
Irgaclear
Clarifier: organoleptic excellence and high see-through clarity to products made of polypropylene random copolymer and polypropylene homo polymer. It is ideally suited for injection moulded and thermoformed polypropylene food and storage containers as well as blow moulded bottles.
Irgacycle
Recycling Additive Package: These tailored additive compositions are enabling recycled plastics for re-use in higher valued end applications.
Luwax
