Stabilizers for Polyamides
Background
 Polyamides (often filled with glass fibers and/or mineral

fillers) are increasingly used to replace metals for under-
the-hood components
 Thermal oxidative stabilization is critical to maintain
properties at the high temperatures found under-the-
hood
 Typical applications include air intake manifolds, rocker
covers, air filter housings, and radiator end-tanks

Under-The -Hood Applications

Products
Types of Stabilizers
 Organic Antioxidants
 Inorganic Antioxidants
• Combination of copper iodide (CuI), (potassium iodide) KI or potassium
bromide (KBr) and lubricant
• Neat CuI is dusty and neat KI cakes into a brick
• Has light stabilization function
 Hybrid Inorganic/Organic Antioxidants
• Better color than pure inorganic antioxidants
• Also recommended for fiber
 Selection of the antioxidant system is dependent on the requirements
of the application

Inorganic Antioxidants
Advantages Disadvantages
 Excellent thermal oxidative  Poor initial color
stability, especially at high
 Pigment interactions
temperatures (>120oC)
 Negative impact on electrical
 Low stabilization cost vs.

 Water-extractable
 Not effective for the
