Product Applications
  • Hostastat® FA 68 V is a highly effective internal antistatic agent for polymers, i.e. polyolefins or styrenics.
  • It is added to equalise and reduce static charges on polymers surface preventing undesired or hazardous effects caused by dust attraction, spark discharge, ink misting.
  • Hostastat® FA 68 V offers high performance and long term efficiency.
  • It is suitable for both thick and thin applications, particularly for BOPP printable films.
  • For applications where immediate antistatic effects are required it is recommended to combine Hostastat® FA 68 V with rapidly acting antistatic agents, e.g.Hostastat® FE 2
