Einar® 401

Technical Datasheet | Supplied by Palsgaard

Einar® 401 by Palsgaard is a plant-based, food-grade internal anti-static additive custom-designed for use in impact copolymer polypropylene, PP foams and injection molding applications.

This long-lasting anti-static additive is the perfect alternative to ethoxylated amine and amides as it is able to match or exceed these while being safe enough to eat.
This optimized anti-stat has been developed specifically to work in challenging environments such as reduced temperatures and low humidity.
Einar® 401 key features and benefits include:
Highly effective replacement for anti-static ethoxylated amines and amides.
An optimized blend of mono- and diglycerides with selected fatty acid profiles made from vegetable oils.
An internal anti-static additive for additive masterbatches based on polypropylene.
Worldwide regulatory approval for food-contact applications.
Available in pellet form.
Produced in CO₂-neutral factories.
Prevents dust attraction to plastic articles.
Prevents electrical discharge during filling and loading of plastic packaging.
Offers mold release and denesting properties.
Can be used for other polypropylene 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 polypropylene packaging in production and final application.
It is suitable for broad range of applications such as thin-walled containers used for yogurt & margarine, small & large buckets for both food and non-food storage.
It is also used in PP foams for safe packaging of sensitive electronic goods.
The recommended dosage level for impact copolymers is 0.5-1.0% and for PP foams is 0.2-0.5%.
A shelf life of minimum 24 months.
