Overview
D-alpha-tocopherol succinate is a synthetic oil-soluble antioxidant derived from vitamin E. It features high thermal stability and superior oxidative resistance compared to free tocopherols, manufactured via esterification of natural alpha-tocopherol with succinic anhydride.
Application
- Polymer Processing: Extruders and injection molding machines for PVC and PE stabilization.
- Lubricants: Gearboxes and hydraulic systems in heavy industrial machinery.
- Fats & Oils: Refining units in edible oil processing plants.
Precautions
- Storage: Maintain below 25°C in dry, oxygen-free environments (RH < 60%).
- Handling: Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and strong oxidizing agents.
- Maintenance: Regularly inspect sealing integrity in storage silos to prevent moisture ingress.
