Secondary antioxidants act as peroxide decomposers by reducing the hydroperoxide to alcohol and eliminating the source causing the chain branching. Phosphite secondary antioxidants offer effective performance during the melt phase, improve color retention, and work during the melt stabilization stage.
The SI Group WESTON™ portfolio comprises high-purity solid and liquid phosphite antioxidant and liquid phosphite ester additives. These SI Group additives are designed to function as secondary antioxidants while synergizing with primary antioxidants, such as hindered phenols. WESTON™ phosphite antioxidants are suitable for various plastic and elastomer resins that require color, processing, and thermal stability.

Versatile phosphite stabilizer improves color, processing stability, and end use of various plastics and elastomers; similar to WESTON™ 398 but with food contact approval.
Highly effective, phosphite-based color and molecular weight stabilizer for polymers, elastomers, and adhesives; similar to WESTON™ 618F but with improved hydrolytic stability.
Nonylphenol-free phosphite antioxidant additive designed as a drop-in replacement for TNPP with a 20% lower loading rate; like WESTON™ 705 but with improved hydrostability.
Diaryl phosphite ester antioxidant with a high phosphorus content and relatively low molecular weight; improve color and light stability in polymers that do not require food contact approval.
Alkyl aryl phosphite ester antioxidant provides color and processing stability in polymers that do not require food contact approval; similar to WESTON™ DPDP but with higher molecular weight and lower phosphorus content.
Versatile phosphite stabilizer improves color, processing stability, and end use of various polymers; similar to WESTON™ 399 but with a higher flash point.
