The Songxtend stabiliser solutions offer benefits to support automotive manufacturers in their use of polyolefin materials in order to save weight and enhance their green credentials. In particular, the stabilisers Songxtend 2121, Songxtend 2122 and Songxtend 2123 meet thermal stability requirements while addressing fogging and odor issues in car interiors. They reduce VOC emissions and improve organoleptic properties by eliminating or reducing undesirable odors. 

Songxtend 2121 stabiliser contains 60% less sulphur while still maintaining high thermal stability, meeting or exceeding current targets provided by state of the art stabilisation packages. Songxtend 2122 stabiliser offers an optimised cost/performance balance while having 30% less sulphur content as well as maintaining the thermal stability levels of Songxtend 2121. Songxtend 2123 stabiliser is 100% sulphur free to reduce possible odor distraction in car interiors to the absolute minimum combined with a heat stability performance that meets the targets of car manufacturers. 

Songwon offers an extensive portfolio of stabilizers adding strength and durability to polymers used in the automotive industry. These include Songnox Antioxidants and Songnox One Pack Systems for easier dosage and handling. Songwon’s partnership with Sabo S.p.A., the world’s second biggest supplier of monomeric and polymeric hindered amine light stabilisers (HALS), will bring additional light stabiliser solutions to the market.
