Why polymer stabilization is essential

Modern polymer materials must perform reliably in increasingly demanding environments. Heat during processing, exposure to oxygen and UV radiation, and long-term environmental stress can all lead to degradation. Without effective stabilization, polymers may experience discoloration, reduced mechanical strength, loss of flexibility, and shorter product lifetimes.

Caldic supports polymer manufacturers, compounders, coating formulators and adhesive producers with stabilization technologies designed to protect material performance from production through end use. Our portfolio of antioxidants, UV absorbers and light stabilizers helps maintain polymer integrity, process stability and long term durability across a wide range of applications.

Maintaining material performance from processing to application

During polymer processing, high temperatures can initiate oxidation reactions that affect viscosity, color and material stability. Over time, sunlight and environmental conditions may further degrade polymer structures, impacting product performance and lifespan.

Stabilization technologies help prevent these effects by protecting polymers against thermal oxidation and UV induced degradation. By combining different additive technologies, manufacturers can ensure reliable processing, maintain physical properties and extend the durability of finished materials.

Caldic stabilization technologies

Caldic offers a range of additive technologies designed to protect polymers against heat, oxidation and UV exposure.

Caldic AO

Primary and secondary antioxidants that protect polymers from thermal degradation during processing and long term use. These additives help maintain stability, prevent discoloration and preserve mechanical properties.

Caldic UVA

UV absorbers that protect polymers and coatings from harmful ultraviolet radiation. These additives help prevent surface degradation, color change and loss of material strength.

Caldic HALS

Hindered amine light stabilizers that provide long term protection against UV induced degradation. HALS technologies are especially effective in applications requiring extended outdoor durability.

Sarex Triazines

UVA stabilization solutions are designed to improve UV resistance and extend the lifespan of polymer-based materials.

Sarex Triazines focus on effective UVA stabilization and offer a more environmentally safer alternative to traditional benzotriazole technology. As benzotriazoles come under increasing pressure from ECHA, triazines are emerging as a strong replacement for formulators seeking reliable UV protection and a more future-ready stabilization approach.
