Loxiol® P 861/3.5

This thermostable ester with its minimum volatility is suitable as a processing agent for various types of thermoplastics. In the injection molding of polycarbonate, PET, PBT, PMMA and polyacetal, Loxiol® P 861/3.5 prevents the polymer melt from sticking to the hot machine parts and facilitates mold release at higher temperatures. That makes it possible to use molds with a complex geometry. In addition, it improves the feed behaviour and prevents the granules from melting in the feed zone (bridge formation). Loxiol® P 861/3.5 also has a favorable influence on the tool filling speed, which improves the surface properties of the finished articles. Polycarbonate and PMMA containing 0.1 to 0.5 % Loxiol® P 861/3.5 remain transparent and color stable. Loxiol® P 861/3.5 may be used as antiblock additive for biaxially oriented polyester films improving further resistance abrasion. Depending on its use as internal and external lubricant,  Loxiol® P 861/3.5 is commonly added at dosages of about 0.2 to 1.0 %.
