· Internal production to ensure global supply
· High molecular weight multifunctional antioxidant for elastomers and adhesives
· A small amount is effective, there is almost no volatilization loss during processing, and no yellowing occurs
In order to ensure the global supply of SONGNOX® 5650, production of this product was started at Panoli plant in Songyuan, Gujarat, India.
SONGNOX® 5650 is a high molecular weight multifunctional phenolic antioxidant used primarily as a post-polymerization processing stabilizer for unsaturated elastomers.
Matsubara placed a strong emphasis on the reliable supply of products and started the production of SONGNOX® 5650 at the Panoli plant in September last year. The added in-house capacity enabled Matsubara to ensure a reliable worldwide supply of SONGNOX® 5650. In 2014, the Panoli plant from Sequent Acquired Songyuan Polymer Stabilizer Business Unit Head Elena Scaltritti said: 'In the past three years, Matsubara has been heavily invested in the Panoli plant in order to be developed into a specialty chemical production base, including SONGNOX ® 5650. '
Phenolic antioxidants are highly efficient, non-discoloring stabilizers for a variety of readily oxidizable organic materials, including plastics, synthetic fibers, elastomers and wax products. They can be used as free radical scavengers and are mainly used in the field of finished product protection .
Thomas Schmutz, Head of Global Technical Services and Applications Development at Matsubara, said: "Because of its unique properties, SONGNOX® 5650 is comparable in performance to the stabilizer that must be used in large quantities, and because of its very low volatility, it performs well in polymer processing, drying Or virtually no volatilization during storage, these features make SONGNOX® 5650 extremely cost effective. '
This non-pigmented antioxidant is suitable for use with a wide variety of elastomers including polybutadiene, polyisoprene, latex styrene butadiene, nitrile rubber, carboxylated styrene-butadiene rubber latex And styrene copolymers.It can also be used for hot melt adhesives, solvent-based adhesives and natural and synthetic tackifier resins.
SONGNOX® 5650 has a wide range of food contact safety certifications and is especially suitable for pressure-sensitive adhesives. In addition to its high level of antioxidant protection, SONGNOX® 5650 offers good long-term thermal stability.
