BHT

BHT is a phenolic-type antioxidant widely used in rubber compounding, especially for natural rubber and synthetic rubber that are prone to degradation from external factors such as heat, sunlight, oxygen, and ozone. These environmental exposures can trigger oxidation reactions that cause the rubber's molecular structure to deteriorate, resulting in brittleness over time.

BHT functions by inhibiting oxidation reactions in rubber polymer chains. It helps extend the service life of rubber products and maintain essential mechanical properties such as flexibility and tensile strength, even under prolonged exposure to oxygen.

Product Features:

• Safe and versatile antioxidant suitable for multiple industries
• Ideal for rubber formulations requiring color stability (does not cause yellowing)
• Effectively protects rubber from long-term oxidative degradation
• Can be combined with other antioxidants for enhanced synergistic performance

Industrial Applications:

• Natural and synthetic rubber compounds
• Rubber insulation and cable sheathing
• Outdoor rubber components
• Rubber products requiring color stability or whiteness
• Plastic industry and certain coating applications
