Antioxidant 1010: Application and Selection Guide for the “King of Anti-aging” in the Plastics Industry
In the processing and long-term use of plastics, oxidative aging is a core pain point restricting the lifespan and performance of products—high-temperature processing easily leads to resin degradation, and outdoor or high-temperatu...Read more -
Application principle of amino resin crosslinking agent in coatings
Overview of the application of amino resin crosslinking agents The main role of amino resins (melamine-formaldehyde, benzomelamine-formaldehyde, and urea-formaldehyde resins) in thermosetting coatings is to crosslink the main film-...Read more -
Overview of Antistatic Agents
Generation of electrostatic charge The ability of a solid to carry a charge depends on surface conditions, dielectric constant, surface resistivity, and the relative humidity of the surrounding environment. Its ability to carry a charge is inversely proportional to its dielectric constant and rel...Read more -
Brief Introduction to UV Absorbers and Their Standards
I. Terms and Definitions Sunlight contains a large amount of ultraviolet (UV) light, with wavelengths of approximately 290-460 nm, which is harmful to colored objects. This harmful UV light causes color molecules to decompose and fade through a chemical redox reaction. Using UV absorbers can eff...Read more -
