PU Antistatic agents

Ortegol® AST

Product description

Within the Ortegol® AST range from EVONIK, antistatic agents for the use in polyurethane applications are offered. These are ionic chemical compounds that increase the electrical conductivity of PU parts.

Antistatic modification is very important when equipment is used in areas with risk of explosion or in contact with sensitive electronics. These additives can also help elastomers from dust accumulation. Therefore Ortegol AST® additives are very important for PU applications like flexible slabstock, molded integral foam, microcellular and compact elastomers as well as TPU which is useful for the production of shoe soles, packaging foam, tank linings, floorings or rolls and wheels.

All additives show a very good compatibility with polyether and polyester polyols. Ortegol® AST 5 and Ortegol® AST 8 have to be highlighted as in contrast to conventional antistatics they do not need moisture to be active.
