소개
항산화제 168 (SUNNOX® 168) is the world's most widely used processing stabilizer for thermoplastic polymers. Its full chemical name is Tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl) 인화물.
As a secondary phosphite antioxidant, it functions by neutralizing harmful hydroperoxides generated during high-temperature melt processing — protecting polymers during the intense heat and shear of extrusion, injection molding, and film blowing.
항산화제 168 ~이다 almost always used with Antioxidant 1010 (primary phenolic antioxidant). The 1010/168 combination (ratio 1:2 또는 1:3) is the global industry standard for polyolefin stabilization.
Cost advantage vs. BASF Irgafos 168: 25–45% with equivalent performance confirmed by third-party GLP testing.
주요 애플리케이션
폴리올레핀 (Primary Application)
| Polymer | Typical Dosage | Function |
|---|---|---|
| Polypropylene (PP) | 0.05–0.20 phr | Prevents color degradation & MW reduction during extrusion at 200–280°C |
| HDPE | 0.05–0.15 phr | Blow molding and film extrusion stability |
| LDPE / LLDPE | 0.05–0.10 phr | Film processing stabilizer |
| Metallocene polyolefins | 0.05–0.15 phr | Essential due to sensitivity to processing conditions |

자주하는 질문
큐: Is SUNNOX® 168 a drop-in replacement for BASF Irgafos 168?
Yes — chemically identical (same CAS 31570-04-4). Performance equivalence confirmed by independent GLP lab testing. Customers report identical processing and product performance. Cost saving: 25–45%.
큐: Why is Antioxidant 168 always paired with Antioxidant 1010?
항산화제 1010 (phenolic) scavenges free radicals. 항산화제 168 (인화물) decomposes hydroperoxides. Together they address both degradation pathways simultaneously — far more effective than either alone.
큐: Does Antioxidant 168 cause staining or blooming?
At recommended dosages (0.05–0.2 phr), no blooming or migration occurs. Excellent compatibility with major polyolefins, minimal color contribution.
