Technical Data Sheet
Antilux® Anti-sun check waxes and
654 antiozonants
Function
Anti-check wax to protect rubber articles against caused by ozone and
weathering influences
Product description
Composition: Blend of selected paraffins and micro-waxes
with medium-broad molecular weight
distribution
Appearance: white to yellowish pastilles
Density, 20 °C: approx. 0.92 g/cm3
Congealing point (ISO 2207): 62-67 °C
Physiological properties: see safety data sheet
Use
Mode of action: Owing to its reduced solubility, Antilux 654 migrates to the surface of the
vulcanizates forming a complete protective film which remains stable at
temperatures from -10°C to about 50 °C. The formation of the protective film
takes place at a medium-fast rate. The protective film shows an excellent
stability against dynamic stress. Antiozonants and antioxidants are carried to
the surface of the vulcanizate by the migration of Antilux 654.
Processing: The flake form provides easier weighing and mixing. To ensure a good
dispersion it is recommended to add Antilux 654 right at the beginning of the
mixing cycle. The mixing temperature should exceed the melting point of the
anti-check wax.
Dosage: Tires 1-4 phr; in other rubber articles < 10 phr, depending on the type of
compound
Application: Tires and technical rubber articles, e.g. conveyor belts, cable coverings as well
as technical molded and extruded articles (e.g. profiles) used at higher service
temperatures. Antilux 654 meets test specifications at ozone chamber
temperatures of about 45 °C. The protection may be extended by means of
blending with lower melting Antilux grades.

Storage stability
If stored at temperatures of 35 °C max 1095 days from date of production; at higher temperatures caking may
occur, which has no effect on the performance.
