Features
  • HITEMA 60960 AX offers important benefits such as maintaining steady the melt flow, avoids the coloration triggered by the thermal degradation and gives a long-term  thermal stability.
  • Improves the polyolefin extrusion no affecting the physical properties no the sealability, adhesion and printing, thus it is intended for a broad range of plastic stuff.
  • The product features a great thermal stability, therefore it is suitable for being used under demanding processing conditions (high temperatures and shears).
  • HITEMA 60960 AX, in addition to having a high concentration of antioxidants, incorporates a series of additives which synergetic acts as anti-gel, non-stick, and descaling agents.
