Benefits Of ULTRANOX™ 800 Blended Series
Introducing The ULTRANOX™ 800 Series From SI Group
Polypropylene systems have high stabilization demands. To meet required melt, color, and storage performance standards, SI Group has launched ULTRANOX™ 800 blended antioxidant additives.
Standard stabilization additives have lacked innovation and have not kept pace with increasing material science and product requirements. To address this gap, SI Group has developed three high-performance antioxidants as part of the ULTRANOX™ 800 additive portfolio. Designed for demanding applications that involve high temperature, extreme processing, or enhanced color stability, ULTRANOX™ 800 products fulfill the evolving requirements of resin converters.
- Superior product aesthetics from enhanced color control
- Increased throughput from better processing stability
- Supply security from a domestic world-class ISO certified manufacturing facility
- On-site technical support from SI Group's industry leading experts
- Stabilized cost savings of up to 50% due to performance and add rates
