Polymers are made up of very large molecules made up of many repeating units called monomers, which ultimately form this long polymer chain

Tap Stabilizer
Maintaining constant conditions: During polymer processing (e.g. extrusion, injection molding), maintaining temperature, pressure, and material flow is critical to producing quality parts. Fluctuations in these conditions can lead to defects such as warping, discoloration, and changes in mechanical properties.
Control: In general, polymers can undergo deformation during processing due to heat, shear stress, and oxidation. Stabilizers are added to the polymer to counteract these effects and maintain its integrity.
Dimensional stability:
Preventing warping and distortion: Some polymers are prone to warping or distortion after molding or during use. Stabilizers can help improve the dimensional stability of the final product by minimizing these effects.
The concept of stabilization in polymer processing is crucial to ensure consistent quality, prevent degradation, and maintain the desired properties of the final product.
