Product Applications
  • Baerostab® MTS 1200-US is a liquid methyl tin mercaptide, suitable for extrusion and calendaring of crystal clear and pigmented rigid films and blow-molding of bottles, as well as for injection molding of pressure fittings.
  • Baerostab® MTS 1200-US imparts good initial color and color hold.
  • It also provides approximately 10-20% greater heat stability than Octyl tin mercaptide stabilizers, depending on application and formulation.
  • As this product has no lubricating effect, it must be used in combination with suitable lubricants such as those supplied by Baerlocher.
