Antioxidant 1010, chemically known as Pentaerythritol tetrakis (3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) propionate), is a high-molecular-weight hindered phenolic antioxidant. It plays a highly effective role in preventing oxidative degradation in polymers and polymer-based materials.
Physical and Chemical Properties of Antioxidant 1010
Antioxidant 1010 is a white, odorless powder with excellent thermal stability. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as benzene, toluene, chloroform, and partially in alcohols.
• High resistance to heat and light
• Excellent performance at elevated temperatures
• Non-volatile and low toxicity
• Compatible with a wide range of polymers
• Suitable for combined formulations with phosphite antioxidants or light stabilizers
Applications of Antioxidant 1010
• Polyethylene (PE)
• Polypropylene (PP)
• Polystyrene and ABS
• Polyesters and Polyurethanes
• Elastomers and synthetic rubbers
• Adhesives and industrial coatings
• Natural and synthetic lubricants
• Paints, resins, and process fluids
This material is often used in combination with Antioxidant 168 or other phosphite antioxidants for optimal performance under high-temperature conditions.
Advantages of Antioxidant 1010
• Extends the lifespan of polymer products
• Prevents loss of physical and visual properties
• Suitable for a wide range of manufacturing processes (extrusion, molding, etc.)
