Product Information
BX ATA 300 is a tallow-based oleyl bis(2-hydroxyethyl) amine. BX ATA 300 is an internal antistatic additive that can be used in various polymers such as PE, LDPE and PP. HBS-A300 gives sustained
antistatic action and is especially effective in film applications also due to its relatively fast migration. It is a paste at ambient temperature. When heated at 40-50℃ the product can be dosed as a liquid directly into the polymer by using a single or twin-screw extruder. Pigment or color concentrates should be mixed with the antistatic agent prior to extruding. Premixing ensures uniform distribution of BX ATA 300 in the resin while BX ATA 300 acts as a dispersion aid to the pigment color concentrate.
Safety
BX ATA 300 is non-toxic, and approved for application in food indirect contact packaging materials.
