For many years, Eliokem has been a leading producer
of phenolic and diphenylamine antioxidants marketed
under the
Wingstay® trade name.
Wingstay® antioxidants are used in wide varieties
of rubber and plastic products that require
protection from their environment.
Without such a protection the rubber and plastic goods would be presenting a lot of failures from softening
and stickiness in some cases to hardening and embrittlement to the extreme. Beside uses in rubber and plastic
articles, phenolic antioxidants are important ingredients in gasoline, oil, grease, fat, food and synthetic
latices.
The intrinsic value of these age resistors is difficult to estimate, but they do offer many direct and
indirect benefits which have had a positive effect on the use of rubber and plastic in our society.
For example it is assumed that the life of a certain rubber or plastic articles is quadrupled by the use of
age resisters. Then service life cost is dramatically reduced.
Eliokem has positionned itself to meet the ever growing demand for more cost effective materials in new
applications and is constantly investigating areas and markets where Wingstay antioxidants will bring more
value to the final product, increasing their service life.
