제품개요

Antioxidant CA (1,1,3-트리스(2-methyl-4-hydroxy-5-tert-butylphenyl)butane) carries three hindered-phenol groups in one molecule, so it is efficient per unit weight and stays in the polymer at processing temperatures. It is used in PP and PE, 전선 및 케이블 화합물, ABS, PVC, 아빠, hot-melt adhesives and rubber, and is normally combined with a phosphite such as 168 for processing stability.

Typical specification. Every shipment is supplied with a batch COA; the limits that apply to your order are confirmed in the quotation and contract.

Key Benefits

Three phenolic groups

Efficient radical scavenging per unit weight.

Low volatility and extraction

Antioxidant CA Buyer Guide

Name the failure you want to prevent

Yellowing or melt-flow change during processing points to the phosphite share; embrittlement or cracking after months in service points to the phenolic and thioester share. Note recycled content and the number of extrusion passes.

Start from a proven blend

Most polyolefin packages start from a phenolic primary plus a phosphite secondary, then adjust. Send your current package and we suggest a starting blend for the trial instead of changing several variables at once.

Compare the numbers that matter

For powders: 시험, melting range, volatiles and light transmittance at 425/500 nm (a direct read on color). Ask for the same parameters on our COA that appear on your incoming-inspection sheet.

Lock in supply terms

Agree packaging, monthly volume, destination port and required documents up front. A matching CAS number alone does not qualify a new source; run your trial and keep the approved lot COA as the reference.

Antioxidant CA FAQ

CA or 1010?

Both are high-performance phenolics. CA is often chosen in wire and cable and where extraction resistance matters; 1010 is the general standard in polyolefins. Send your current grade and we match it.

What dosage is typical?

0.05폴리올레핀에서 –0.3%, usually with a phosphite. Confirm in your heat-aging test.

Is CA suitable for cable in contact with copper?

Copper accelerates oxidation; cable compounds in contact with copper usually also need a metal deactivator. Tell us the construction and we suggest a package.

Can I get a sample before ordering?

예. Tell us the polymer, the test you plan to run and the quantity you need. Samples ship with a COA so you can compare the lot against your current material.

What if a COA does not match our agreed specification?

Send us the agreed specification and the COA showing the difference (parameter, unit and test method). We check it with the production batch record before you accept the material, and replace or re-test where the lot is out of specification.
