Stabilizer (chemistry)
In industrial chemistry, a stabilizer or stabiliser is a chemical that is used to prevent degradation. File:BigPhosphite31570-04-4.png, Tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl)phosphite is a widely used stabilizer in polymers. File:HALSgeneric.png, Partial structure of typical hindered amine light stabilizers, widely used to protect automotive paints from degradation by UV-light. File:Salpn.png, Salpn is a typical metal deactivator used as a fuel additive to suppress oxidation processes that lead to gums and solids. Metal deactivators like salpn form stable complexes with the metals, suppressing their catalytic activity. Overview Heat and light stabilizers are added to plastics because they ensure safe processing and protect products against aging and weathering. The trend is towards fluid systems, pellets, and increased use of masterbatches. There are monofunctional, bifunctional, and polyfunctional stabilizers. In economic terms the most important product groups on the market for stabili ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
