  • Antioxidant choices?

    Posted by Benz3ne on March 5, 2021 at 3:14 pm

    Afternoon one and all.
    Hope everyone is safe and well as per!
    Quick one today. I’m looking to include an antioxidant in an oil/wax/pigment blend and have become a little stuck. 
    With the current and ongoing spin of BHT being unsafe, what is a suitable choice for an antioxidant that is reasonably temperature-stable (circa 80°C max processing temp)?
    Thanks in advance.

    Take a look at GranLux AOX from Paradigm. I’ve been playing around with it and it’s performing well. High heat tolerance.
