Highly effective primary antioxidant based on butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), providing strong radical-scavenging activity.
Excellent thermal stability, maintaining efficacy during high-temperature processing of polymers and food-contact materials.
Low volatility and low migration tendency, ensuring long-term performance in demanding applications.
Regulatory-compliant for use in food packaging, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics under FDA 21 CFR §182.3173 and EU Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008.
Synergistic with secondary antioxidants such as phosphites and thioesters, enhancing overall stabilization systems.
Fatty foods and edible oils to prevent rancidity and extend shelf life.
Polyolefins (e.g., polypropylene, HDPE, LDPE) for wire & cable insulation and automotive components.
Food-contact packaging films, laminates, and containers requiring FDA-compliant stabilization.
Pharmaceutical excipients and lipid-based drug delivery systems requiring oxidative stability.
Cosmetic formulations containing unsaturated oils or sensitive actives vulnerable to autoxidation.
