Recommended Polymers:
2/4
Polyolefins (PP, PE)
Dosage A dosage of 0.3 - 0.6% in homo PP injection moulding applications provides good
performance. Significantly increasing the dosage will not improve performance. High
dosing may lead to blooming effects, the product surface may become oily, loose trans-
parency and get a yellowish tint. Testing is recommended to define the optimum loading
level for each application and composition.
Impact on Low relative humidity or a lamination process can reduce the antistatic performance.
performance Presence of other functional additives on the surface of the polyolefin can affect antistatic
performance. Testing is recommended to adjust the optimal benefits of properties for final
products and applications.
Guidelines for use The product should be incorporated into the polymer matrix via a masterbatch or by direct
addition at the resin manufacturer. The low content of the additive in plastic articles and pack-
aging makes it difficult to dose directly to plastic articles and packaging.

The results are obtained in 1mm injection molding of homo PP plaques and static decay time. Data are obtained at
50% relative humidity. Einar® 303 has shown improved short term A-S performance compared with the reference,
as analysed for 1 week after sample injection moulding.
Einar® 303 has shown the same good long terms A-S performance as reference up to 22 weeks after sample
injection moulding.
