Analysis of organic additives: Irgafos 168 (CAS No. 31570-04-4)
You would like to carry out an analysis of organic additives: Irgafos 168 (CAS No. 31570-04-4)
In what context should an analysis of Irgafos 168 be carried out?
The analysis of Irgafos 168 (processing stabilizer) and the quantification of its degradation products (particularly the corresponding phosphate) are crucial. This approach allows for monitoring its consumption and assessing the polymer's condition.
The objective of this analytical strategy is threefold:
Ensuring durability:
Ensuring the long-term stability of the finished product.
Preventing premature polymer deterioration (color loss, loss of properties).
Controlling quality and performance:
Maintaining the effectiveness of other additives and active ingredients (e.g., UV filters in cosmetics, or primary stabilizers in plastics).
- Preventing their own decomposition by ensuring sufficient protection.
Regulatory compliance:
Rigorously controlling degradation product levels.
Ensuring compliance with safety standards and migration limits specific to each sector (e.g., cosmetics, medical devices).
The analysis of Irgafos 168 is the tool used to certify the performance and integrity of the material in the face of aging and external stresses.
What is Irgafos 168 (CAS n° 31570-04-4)?
Irgafos 168 is a phosphate antioxidant widely used in polymers and organic additives to prevent thermal degradation. It protects materials from oxidation during processing, extends their lifespan, and stabilizes their final properties.
