Phenolic Plus extends the heat stabilization of polyamides to peak temperatures of 180°C, something not possible for hindered phenolic antioxidants and organic phosphites. Furthermore, due to the high efficiency of Phenolic Plus, lower dosages are possible than those needed by conventional phenolic/phosphite blends in order to achieve the same effect. For example, in trials at 150°C, the dosage of Phenolic Plus BRUGGOLEN® TP-H1803 could be reduced by 30% compared to that of a standard stabilizer package, whilst still maintaining the same level of tensile strength retention after heat aging.
Brüggemann supplies BRUGGOLEN® TP-H1803 in the form of dust-free pellets which can be easily metered and readily dispersed and are suitable for both compounding and injection molding.
