Dragonox® BHT
Dragonox® BHT is a phenolic antioxidant that is widely used in polymer materials, petroleum products, and the food processing industry. It is a common rubber antioxidant that has a protective effect on heat and oxygen aging. It is easy to disperse in rubber and can be directly mixed into rubber or added to latex as a dispersion. This volatile product can also be used as a gelling inhibitor in SBR and as an effective stabilizer in polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride (dosage 0.01 - 0.1%), and polyethylene ether.
