Polyolefins, such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), are ubiquitous in modern manufacturing due to their excellent properties and cost-effectiveness. However, these polymers are susceptible to degradation from heat, light, and oxidation during processing and use, which can compromise their mechanical integrity and lifespan. Tris(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl)isocyanurate, widely known as Antioxidant 3114 (CAS 27676-62-6), is a critical additive that addresses these challenges. As a dedicated manufacturer and supplier, we understand the importance of this compound for the polyolefin industry.

Antioxidant 3114 is a high-performance hindered phenolic antioxidant, specifically designed to provide exceptional protection against thermo-oxidative degradation. Its efficacy lies in its ability to efficiently trap free radicals, thereby halting the chain reactions that lead to polymer breakdown. The compound's low volatility is a significant advantage, ensuring that it remains within the polymer matrix during extrusion, molding, and subsequent service life, thereby providing sustained protection. For R&D scientists and procurement managers looking to buy materials with enhanced durability, this antioxidant is a strategic choice.

In polyolefin applications, Antioxidant 3114 is employed across a wide range to improve thermal stability and prevent yellowing or embrittlement. This includes its use in films for packaging (especially non-fatty foods, where it holds FDA approval), fibers for textiles and carpets, automotive components, and household goods. Its compatibility with PE and PP is excellent, allowing for easy incorporation and effective dispersion. Partnering with a reliable supplier ensures you receive a product of consistent quality for these critical applications.

Furthermore, the synergistic effects of Antioxidant 3114 when combined with other stabilizers are highly beneficial for polyolefin manufacturers. When paired with phosphite secondary antioxidants or UV stabilizers, it can significantly boost the overall resistance of the material to both heat and UV light. This allows for the formulation of highly stable polyolefin products that can withstand demanding environmental conditions, offering a competitive edge. We encourage our B2B clients to explore these synergistic combinations with our expert team.
