Product Description
TapStar AO is a highperformance Antioxidant masterbatch with a combination of unique active ingredients. It allows excellent homogeneous dispersion of active additives in the polymer thus preventing degradation and provides thermal stability during processing while maintaining the original mechanical properties of the resin.
Superior Protection for PolymersOur anti-oxidant masterbatch drastically improves the oxidative stability of polyolefin-based plastics during processing and throughout their lifecycle. By efficiently neutralizing free radicals generated by heat, light, or processing stress, it extends product longevity and performance even under demanding conditions.
Versatile Compatibility and Easy ProcessingDesigned for universal use across a spectrum of polymers like PE, PP, and EVA, this masterbatch disperses uniformly thanks to its refined particle size and PE/PP carrier. Its low melting point integrates seamlessly into various plastic processing techniques, without negatively affecting product appearance or performance.
Safe Handling and Long Shelf LifeOur masterbatch is non-toxic and safe for standard handling procedures. Store in cool, dry conditions for maximum performance and benefit from a generous shelf life of 12 months. This ensures your processes remain consistent, compliant, and cost-effective.
