Description

2,4-Dicyclopentyl-6-Isopropyl-m-Cresol CAS NO 94022-20-5 is a hindered phenolic compound belonging to the cresol family, valued for its antioxidant and stabilizing properties. This specialty chemical is engineered to inhibit oxidative degradation, thereby extending the functional lifespan of sensitive materials. It is primarily sought by formulators and manufacturers in the polymer, lubricant, and specialty chemical industries for high-performance additive applications.

Application

• Primary antioxidant and stabilizer in polyolefins (e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene) and other polymers.
• Additive in synthetic lubricants, greases, and industrial oils to prevent oxidation and viscosity breakdown.
• Stabilizing agent in adhesives, sealants, and elastomers to enhance thermal-oxidative stability.
• Intermediate in the synthesis of more complex hindered phenol antioxidants and UV stabilizers.
• Protective additive in fuel and hydrocarbon-based fluids to control gum and deposit formation.
• Component in specialty coatings and resins requiring long-term durability against environmental aging.
