EXOstat S5 is a specialized antistatic agent designed for external application on plastic surfaces, textiles, and geotextiles. The product is applied by spraying, brushing, or soaking. It is primarily used in the production of technical and stretch films based on LLDPE, LDPE, PP, and GPPS. Thanks to its excellent miscibility with water, the concentration of the solution can be adjusted to achieve the required surface resistance of the material.
EXOstat S5 is a specialized blend of surfactants with antistatic properties, designed for external application to plastic surfaces and other materials, including textiles and geotextiles. The product can be applied by spraying, surface coating, or soaking.
EXOstat S5 is particularly recommended for use in the production of engineering films and stretch films based on linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), polypropylene (PP), and general-purpose polystyrene (GPPS). It works by reducing the buildup of electrostatic charges through lowering the material’s surface resistance.
The product is highly miscible with water over a wide range of concentrations. The recommended concentration of EXOstat S5 in an aqueous solution is 5 to 15%. The ability to adjust the concentration allows application conditions to be tailored to individual process requirements and the expected antistatic properties of the finished product.
External application of EXOstat S5 produces an antistatic effect immediately after the product is applied to the material’s surface. However, it should be noted that the duration of this effect is shorter compared to antistatic agents introduced internally during plastics processing.
At ambient temperature, EXOstat S5 is a colorless liquid with a maximum color of 40 units on the Hazen scale (25°C). The product is highly soluble in water, and its dynamic viscosity is approximately 100 mPa·s at 20°C.
Thanks to its properties, EXOstat S5 is used in plastics processing as well as in textile applications and the production of geotextiles.
