Elastomers, including natural rubber and various synthetic rubbers like EPDM, SBR, and butyl rubber, are valued for their flexibility and resilience. However, they are inherently susceptible to degradation caused by oxygen, heat, light, and ozone. This degradation can lead to loss of elasticity, cracking, and ultimately, product failure. Effective stabilization is crucial to maintain the performance characteristics and extend the service life of elastomer-based products. Among the most effective stabilizers are hindered phenolic antioxidants, with Antioxidant 1010 standing out as a high-performance choice.

As a prominent manufacturer and supplier of specialty chemicals in China, we provide high-quality Antioxidant 1010, scientifically known as Pentaerythritol Tetrakis[3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate]. This compound functions as a potent primary antioxidant, effectively scavenging free radicals that initiate and propagate the oxidative degradation process in elastomers. Its chemical structure, characterized by bulky tert-butyl groups adjacent to the phenolic hydroxyl group, provides steric hindrance, enhancing its stability and efficiency.

The application of Antioxidant 1010 in elastomers offers several key benefits. Firstly, it significantly improves resistance to thermo-oxidative degradation. This is crucial during the processing of rubber compounds, which often involves high temperatures, and also during the service life of the final products when exposed to heat. Secondly, its low volatility ensures that it remains within the elastomer matrix, providing long-term protection without significant loss through evaporation.

Moreover, Antioxidant 1010 exhibits excellent compatibility with a wide range of elastomers and other compounding ingredients, such as fillers, reinforcing agents, and vulcanizing agents. This compatibility allows for homogeneous dispersion, ensuring uniform protection throughout the elastomer material. It can also work synergistically with other types of antioxidants and stabilizers, such as phosphites and thioesters, to provide a more comprehensive stabilization package, offering enhanced protection against various degradation pathways.

For businesses in the rubber and elastomer industry, purchasing a high-quality antioxidant like Antioxidant 1010 is a strategic investment in product durability and performance. We are a trusted supplier, offering competitive prices and a reliable source for this essential additive. We encourage you to buy our premium-grade Antioxidant 1010 to enhance the thermal stability and extend the service life of your elastomer products.
