Discover Einar® 401 anti-static additive for PE foams

Einar® 401 is a highly effective anti-static additive, which enables safe packaging of electronic goods with PP foams. The unique combination of glycerol esters of selected fatty acids enables the highest performance level, which offers a replacement of anti-static chemicals of concern like ethoxylated amines and amides.

Einar® 401 has no adverse effect on our recommended ageing modifier Einar® 201 and thereby the structure of the foam.

Why you need anti-static additives for your PP foams

Polypropylene foams are very popular and widely used packaging materials. They are resilient, return to form after compression and provide effective cushioning and security where it is needed. It is these characteristics, combined with their versatility and customization possibilities, that make them so useful in many applications.

Many PP foam applications require anti-static properties. This is especially the case for packaging of sensitive electronics, for which anti-static properties are crucial to protect them from electric charges. Here optimised and highly effective anti-static additives are required.
