We add Great Lakes doesn’t simply offer the widest choice of

Polymer Additives. Our range includes both Polymers
real value Stabilisers and Flame Retardants – meaning that
from just one source you can buy all the additive
to polymers solutions you need.
Our Polymer Stabiliser additives include primary and
secondary antioxidants, UV absorbers, hindered amine light stabilisers (HALS) and Anox™ NDB™
customised polymer stabiliser blends. These products are complimented by a wide range of
Flame Retardant additives including bromine-based, phosphorus-based, antimony and zinc
synergists, and smoke suppressants. We have also pioneered the development of customised
Fyrebloc® flame retardant blends.

E
very day you come into contact with many
products that include polymers. In fact, it
would be almost impossible to avoid these
products because polymers are the basis of all
plastic articles such as toys, housewares,
packaging, computers, and stadium seats. Great
Lakes’ polymer stabilisers, including antioxidants
and UV stabilisers, are an integral part in the
success plastic plays in our daily lives. That’s
because our products are added in small
amounts to protect plastic performance by
preventing loss of mechanical strength, cracking,
crazing, yellowing, and loss of gloss due to day-
to-day exposure to air and light.

We offer you the choice
of Polymer Stabilisation…
Polymer Stabilisers protect polymers throughout their life
cycle – during manufacture, storage, processing and
their final end use application. At Great Lakes we are
able to offer a wide range of stabilisers for use at all
stages of this life cycle, which are suited to both general
and specialised applications.
Antioxidants
The effects of oxidation will cause degradation of a
polymer over time. The broad range of antioxidants
offered by Great Lakes can play an important role in
counteracting these effects. The choice of antioxidant to
be used at each stage of the polymer life cycle will
depend on factors such as compatibility, colour and
thermal stability, volatility, and stabiliser efficiency.
Great Lakes’ hindered phenolic antioxidants, sold under
the trade names ANOX™ and LOWINOX®, provide
processing stability and long term heat stability. They are
offered in a variety of physical forms in addition to
standard and custom blends. Applications for hindered
phenolic antioxidants include, polyethylene,
polypropylene, ABS, polyester, polyamide, rubber, PVC,
and styrenics. Within this broad range we also offer
 www.pa.greatlakes.com

products suitable for specialist applications such as a

metal deactivator for wire and cable and a phenolic
antioxidant for polyurethane fibre.
Excellent processing stability can be achieved using
Great Lakes’ phosphite co-stabiliser antioxidants. Sold
under the trade name ALKANOX™, phosphite antioxidant
applications include a wide range of thermoplastic
polymers such as polyolefins, polycarbonates, ABS and
polyesters. Like the hindered phenolic antioxidants,
these products are available in a variety of physical
forms as well in standard and custom blends.
Thio ester antioxidant co-stabilisers provide long term
protection of the polymer. Lowinox® DLTDP and
Lowinox® DSTDP are utilised in many applications as a
synergist in combination with other phenolic
antioxidants. Applications include polyethylene,
polypropylene, ABS, polyester and polyamide.
UV Stabilisers
Daily sunshine and its UV radiation have a deteriorating
effect on many organic materials and polymers. UV
stabilisers play an important role in polymers by
counteracting the effects of the sun. Under the trade
name LOWILITE®, Great Lakes produce a wide range of
benzophenone and benzotriazole UV absorbers and a
growing range of backward integrated, HALS light
stabilisers for protection against UV radiation. These UV
stabilisers are used in items such as outdoor furniture,
textile fibres, automotive plastic parts, paints, and
coatings. We also offer unique, synergistic blends
incorporating a nickel quencher for enhanced stabilisers, flame retardants and synergists, as well as
performance in greenhouse film applications. third party additives into special blends. These ready-to-
go, pelletised blends offer enormous benefits to the
