Antioxidants set for price hike
Great Lakes Chemical Corp is to increase prices worldwide by 10% for its main antioxidants including Alkanox 240, Anox 20 and Anox PP-18.
The price for Anox NDB (no dust blends) and other blends will also increase depending on main antioxidant content and value.
"Great Lakes continues to invest in primary antioxidants and we're experiencing both increased costs - from raw materials, energy and logistics - and strong demand in all regions of the world".
"With the price erosion for main antioxidants in recent years, there is a need to move toward economics that will support reinvestment", stated Doug Excell, Global Business Manager-Main Antioxidants.
Great Lakes' Anox 20 and Anox PP-18 hindered phenolic primary antioxidants provide both processing and long-term heat stability to an extensive range of polymers.
Alkanox phosphite secondary antioxidants offer excellent processing stability to most polymers and demonstrate product synergies when combined with hindered phenolic primary antioxidants in Great Lakes' Anox NDB blends.
