LOXIOL EP 8578

LOXIOL EP 8578 is a long-chain ester of pentaerythritol. This thermo-resistant ester is suitable as a processing agent. In the injection molding of polycarbonate, PET, PBT, PMMA and polyacetal, LOXIOL EP 8578 prevents the polymer melt from sticking to the hot machine parts and facilitates mold release at higher temperatures. That makes it possible to use molds with a complex geometry. In addition, it improves the feed behavior and prevents the granules from melting in the feed zone (bridge formation).
