Plastics have become an essential material in virtually every espect of modern day life, replacing other materials such as
wood, glass, paper and steel. However, regular exposure to heat and light inevitably degrades plastics. Weathering manifests as change in colour emergence of cracks and also diminishes the physical properties of Plastics. Excel Industries Ltd. has introduced EXHALSTM 481 which protects the polymer, helping it withstand ultra violet radiation. A low molecular weight light stabilizer providing outstanding light stability to many polymers, thereby retaining the aesthetics and extending their life.

ADVANTAGES

Available in powder form (EXHALSTM 481P) or flakes (EXHALSTM 481F) depending on your requirement. Suitable for demanding applications like weather resistance including continued UV exposure for polymers such as PP, HDPE, PS, ABS, SAN, EPDM and PU. It is also effective in PA and POM. Effective independent of the article dimensions, especially for applications with high specific surface area e.g. coating, films, sheets and tapes.
