Description
Irganox 3052 is an antioxidant. It contains 2-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-6-[[3-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-2-hydroxy-5-methylphenylymethyl-4-methylphenyl acrylate. It is non-staining, non-discoloring, has a low volatility and is resistant to extraction. It protects organic substrates against both, thermo-oxidative and purely thermal degradation. It is particularly active under high processing temperature and anaerobic polymerization and processing conditions. It is compatible with HIPS, ABS, BR, IIR, SBR, SBS, SEBS, EPDM, EPM, MBS, MABS, SMA, modified acrylate, hydrocarbon resins, terpene, terpene phenolic resins, rosin, polycarbonates, polyester-carbonates, polymethacrylates, polyolefins, polyamides or polyphenyleneoxides. Irganox 3052 is suitable for food contact applications. It is listed in AICS, EINECS, PICCS, DSL, MITI, TSCA, CHINA and ECL.
