INDUSTRY COMPONENT

Stabilizers and Additives

Stabilizers and additives enhance the performance and shelf life of daily chemical elastomer gels.

Component Specifications

Definition
Stabilizers and additives are chemical compounds incorporated into elastomer gel formulations to improve stability, processability, and end-use properties. They include antioxidants, UV stabilizers, plasticizers, and rheology modifiers, ensuring consistent quality and extended durability in products like hair gels, skin creams, and deodorants.
Working Principle
These additives function by scavenging free radicals (antioxidants), absorbing UV radiation (UV stabilizers), reducing intermolecular forces (plasticizers), or modifying viscosity (rheology modifiers) to prevent degradation and maintain desired physical properties.
Materials
Common materials include hindered phenols (antioxidants), benzotriazoles (UV stabilizers), phthalates or citrates (plasticizers), and fumed silica or cellulose derivatives (rheology modifiers).
Technical Parameters
  • Form Liquid or powder
  • Solubility Oil or water soluble depending on type
  • Concentration 0.1-5% w/w
Standards
ISO 11936, ASTM D4672
