Einar® 601

Technical Datasheet | Supplied by Palsgaard

Einar® 601 by Palsgaard is a plant-based, food-grade internal anti-static additive, custom-designed for use in LDPE, LLDPE and HDPE films and PE foams. It also acts as a processing aid, leading to better mold release and denesting of injection molded pieces.

This long-lasting anti-static additive is the perfect alternative to ethoxylated amine and amides as it can match or exceed these while being safe enough to eat.
This advanced polyglycerol is specifically designed for PE applications and is recommended for use in demanding applications such as thin-walled pieces, electronics packaging as well as co-extruded and laminated films.
Einar® 601 key features and benefits include:
Highly effective replacement for anti-static ethoxylated amines and amides.
A custom-designed polyglycerol ester made from fatty acids, all of vegetable origin.
An internal anti-static additive for additive masterbatches based on polyethylene.
Worldwide regulatory approval for food-contact applications.
Available in paste form.
Produced in CO₂-neutral factories.
Prevents dust attraction to plastic articles.
Prevents electrical discharge during filling and loading of plastic packaging.
Can be used for all polyethylene grades by adjusting the dosage level.
No worries when used in food-grade applications.
No adverse effects on mechanical, optical, and barrier properties.
Enables clean and dust-free polyethylene packaging in production and final application.
It delivers excellent performance when used in the thinner film sections of a sealing layer such as metallocene LLDPE.
It also offers highly efficient anti-static protection in both plasticized and rigid PVC.
The recommended dosage level for PVC is 0.5-1.0%, for PE foams is 0.2-0.5%, and for LDPE & LLDPE films is 0.1-0.4%.
In HDPE where anti-stat migration is low, the recommended dosage level is 0.3-0.6%.
It has a shelf life of minimum 24 months.
