- Properties and Application
- Loxiol® 8312 is a very efficient, nitrogen-free additive for several applications. It is suitable forthermoplastic materials, particularly for polyolefines as an antistatic agent, lubricant and releaseagent.
- Depending on dosage Loxiol® 8312 lowers the surface resistance of plastics and therebyprevents dust formation on the finished articles. The antistatic effect can be improved bycombining it with other antistatic agents.
- Loxiol® 8312 can be used as a lubricant to improve the flowability of plastic melts and shorteningthe processing cycles.
- Loxiol® 8312 is also suitable for calendered PP film applications in the food packaging industry.
- The use of Loxiol® 8312 eliminates the tendency of films to stick to hot (approx. 200 °C) rollsurfaces. In case of particularly soft PP adjustments, it is advantageous to add metal soaps.
