Antioxidant 1076, chemically known as Octadecyl 3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate, is one of the most widely used hindered phenolic antioxidants in the plastics and polymer industries. As a primary antioxidant, it plays an important role in preventing thermal and oxidative degradation of polymers. This product is odorless and tasteless, exhibits excellent resistance to heat and light, and maintains stable performance during high-temperature processing operations.
Antioxidant 1076 is an effective stabilizer for protecting polymers against degradation caused by heat, light, and oxidation. It offers excellent thermal stability, good compatibility with a wide range of polymers, and helps preserve product quality and physical properties without affecting the color or appearance of the final product. The use of Antioxidant 1076 extends the service life of polymer products and delivers excellent performance even at low dosage levels.
Antioxidant 1076 is widely used in the production of polymers and plastics such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, ABS, polyamides, and polycarbonates. It is also used in synthetic rubbers, elastomers, synthetic fibers, adhesives, coatings, oils, and lubricants to improve stability and prevent quality deterioration during processing and throughout the product’s service life.
