Songnox line of antioxidants

Several advancements have led to the development of new materials in the Songnox line of antioxidants. Songnox 2500 is a hydroquinone-based antioxidant used in medical adhesives and elastomers, as an anti-scorch in wire and cable, and as a color-forming agent in chemical films. Because it is not a phenol, it works in oxygen-deficient conditions. Songnox 4425 is a cresol-based antioxidant that is highly effective in polyamides, polyesters, polyvinyl butyral (PVB) safety glass laminate, high-impact polystyrene, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), and a wide range of spin-finish compositions. Supplied in powder form, it is a primary antioxidant for organic polymers, offering the unique combination of very low discoloration, low volatility and high solubility. Songnox 6180 is a phosphite antioxidant that provides outstanding color suppression in ABS as well as low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) films, often in combination with Songnox 1680.
