BENOX® B-50 is a benzoyl peroxide paste (BPO paste) which is principally used as polymerization initiator and curing agent for monomeric vinyl, acrylic, styrene and unsaturated polyester/vinyl ester resins, and copolymers of these resins, provided the plasticizer and water content can be tolerated.

MAXGARD DPA-8 (octocrylene) is a 100% active liquid ultraviolet light (UV) stabilizer with low color, extremely low volatility and that does not react with other additives or pigments. Compatible with all major PVC plasticizers and easily incorporated into liquid systems, DPA-8 (octocrylene) is used to stabilize plastics (like PVC plastisols, plasticized PVC and liquid color formulations), coatings (including polyester gel-coats and inks) and adhesives from the harmful effects of ultraviolet light (UV).

MAXGARD DPA-2 (etocrylene) is an ultraviolet light (UV) stabilizer which is extremely useful in thermoplastic resins due to its excellent ultraviolet light (UV) protection and good heat stability. It also contributes less color than many other ultraviolet light (UV) stabilizers in plastics, coatings and adhesives.

MAXGARD 1000 (benzophenone-2) is very compatible with plastic optical lens materials and highly effective as an ultraviolet light absorber (UV screen) for these products. It also provides improved stability in cosmetics and perfumes and improves colors in various applications. MAXGARD 1000 has a very broad ultraviolet light (UV) absorption band which extends into the UV-A range.

MAXGARD 700 (benzophenone-12) is an ultraviolet light (UV) stabilizer which provides good compatibility with numerous polymers (including PVC, polypropylene and polyethylene) and inexpensively guards against yellowing. At certain concentrations, it conforms to FDA regulations for additives in polyolefins used in some food packaging applications. In addition to plastics, MAXGARD 700 is used to stabilize coatings, adhesives and sealants from the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

MAXGARD 900 (benzophenone-8) is an ultraviolet light (UV) absorber which is highly soluble in a wide range of solvents and compatible with many different polymers. These properties allow it to protect many types of plastics, coatings, adhesives and cosmetics from the harmful impact of ultraviolet light (UV) rays.

MAXGARD 600 is a 100% active liquid ultraviolet light (UV) stabilizer which is miscible with a large number of common solvents and plasticizers, allowing it to be incorporated into many different systems. It can be used in plastics (flexible and rigid PVC, PVC plastisols, liquid color formulations), polyurethane coatings and vinyl and acrylic adhesives.

MAXGARD 400 is an ultraviolet light (UV) stabilizer which is used in plastics, such as polystyrene, acrylic sheet, epoxy and unsaturated polyesters, coatings, such as nitrocellulose lacquers and varnishes, adhesives, such as pressure sensitive acrylic adhesives, and textiles, such as dyed polyester fabrics.

MAXGARD 300 (benzophenone-6) absorbs ultraviolet light, thereby increasing the lightfastness of dyes on polyester window film and polyester fabrics. It is also used to stabilize plastics, coatings, such as polyurethanes, furniture stains and varnishes, nitrocellulose lacquers, fluorescent pigments and photographic emulsions, textiles and adhesives.
