LOXIOL 8314 is a vegetable-based high-mono GMS. LOXIOL 8314 is suitable for many thermoplastics, particularly for polyolefines as an antistatic agent, lubricant and release agent. Compared with nitrogeneous additives, it shows considerable advantages regarding the color and odor. LOXIOL 8314 lowers surface resistance of plastics significantly, thus preventing dust figuring on the finished articles. Improvement of the antistatic efficiency can be obtained even by a combination with other antistatic agents.
