Product Applications
  • Baerostab L 230 is a highly pure, liquid zinc octoate, low in heavy metals, which has been particularly developed for the non-toxic stabilization of medical articles, food and pharmaca packaging.
  • Baerostab L 230 satisfies highest demands concerning odor and organoleptic properties as well as initial color and thermostability.
  • Main application is the manufacture of bottles for mineral water.
  • In addition, this stabilizer is used in combination with epoxy plasticizer Baero stab LSA and/or calcium-zinc stabilizers to improve color or to solve special problems.
  • Baerostab L 230 is also a very fast kicker for use in the manufacture of chemically blown foams.
