Einar® Antistatic agents
Einar® anti-static agents are a series of functional internal polymer agents designed to deliver outstanding antistatic, mould-release, antislip and antiblooming performance for masterbatches and polyolefins such as PP and PE.
Einar® anti-static agents offer superb anti-static capabilities to polyolefin and injection-moulded products and remove once and for all the worries about food safety that come with the use of traditional anti-static agents.
Palsgaard offers four different types of antistatic agents, based on distilled monoglycerides of fatty acids (GMS-90), monodiglycerides of fatty acids (GMS-60) and polyglycerol esters. All are based purely on sustainably sourced vegetable oils and are independently tested with results superior to any standard, petrochemical antistatic agents in the market today.

Einar® Dispersing aids
Palsgaard offers two innovative vegetable-based dispersing aids that ensure optimum distribution of pigments, fillers and other additives.
Pigment dispersion in masterbatches is a question of obtaining optimum pigment distribution with the use of as little pigment as possible.
Einar® 101 and Einar® 103 are bio-based dispersing aids with outstanding performance even at much smaller doses when compared to market-standard products.
How we can help you
At Palsgaard, we are dedicated to finding the right solution for every single project. We realise that generic tests only give an indication of the final outcome – real-life testing is needed, and in collaboration with you we can devise tests to show the efficiency of Einar® 101 and Einar® 103.
We are also capable of tailoring solutions to new projects and new products – contact our product specialists today and learn more.

Anti-fogging agents
Einar® anti-fogging agents are based entirely on vegetable oils, eliminating all worries about food contact and are independently tested to deliver superior anti-fogging performance when compared to market-standard solutions.
Anti-fogging agents are used to keep polymer films and food wrap perfectly transparent and work by reducing the surface tension of the film, so that water droplets cannot form.
Einar® internal antifogging agents work by changing the surface tension of polymer products such as cast and blown films, injection moulding and extrusion applications.
They also offer these benefits:

Water-based additive coatings
Palsgaard offers two innovative water-based coatings with anti-static and anti-fogging performance designed for polymer types where migratory additives fail to provide the required performance. This is the case in applications where migration is hindered by high crystallinity of the polymer or its bonding to the additive. Formulated with our plant-based polymer additives, the coatings provide an invisible layer of anti-static or anti-fogging performance.
Antistatic coatings
Einar® 1103 is a sovent-free, water-based antistatic coating solution. Uniquely efficient, it will work at coating concentrations down to 10 mg/m2. This refers to a coating thickness of about 10nm after drying. For a robust, lasting effect, surface concentrations of 25-100 mg/m2 are generally recommended.
Einar® 1103 is applicable to most polymers, including PS, PVC, polyesters and polyolefins. Tests have shown excellent performance in oriented and stretched films as well as in thermoforming and rotomoulding applications. Einar® 1103 compares exceptionally well with competing products and has proven superior performance in numerous evaluations.
Your direct benefits:
Einar® 1122 is a water-based, solvent-free dispersion of food-grade antifogging additives. After coating and drying, anti-fogging performance can be achieved with coating concentrations down to 25 mg/m2. This refers to a coating thickness after drying of about 25nm. For a robust and lasting effect, surface concentrations of 50 - 150 mg/m2 are generally recommended.
This way, Einar® 1122 delivers efficient and consistent performance in applications requiring uncompromising quality, such as oriented and stretched polyolefin and polyester films, as well as thermoforming applications. Einar® 1122 anti-fogging coatings compare exceptionally well with competing products and have proven superior performance in numerous evaluations.

Coating additives for expandable polystyrene (EPS)
Einar® coating additives
With fine-powdered additives Einar® 501 and Einar® 511 Palsgaard offers the standard GMS and GTS commonly used in the industry for processing control. This enables manufacturers to create their own tailored blends to match their specific production set-ups.
Einar® 501 is an efficient vegetable-based anti-stat that will help improve flow properties of EPS beads during storage, transportation and through the pre-expansion step. Einar®501 is a fine powder with excellent coating properties and the recommended use level is 0.1 - 0.6% depending on EPS bead size. Smaller beads require higher concentrations due to a higher specific surface area.
Einar® 511 is a cooling time enhancer and will help reduce cycle times in the moulding process. Einar®511 is a very fine powder and has high coating efficiency and should be used at loading levels of 0.1 - 0.4% to obtain the best performance on cooling time.
Einar® coating additive blends
Blends offer a very convenient way to apply EPS coatings. It is an all-in-one solution where there is no need to handle several different individual products. The complete coating formulation is an easy-to-use pre-blended formulation offering easy dosing and accuracy, better and faster handling and options for additive inventory optimization.
With blends Einar® 531 and Einar® 533 manufacturers get the double effect of both cooling time enchancers and anti-static additives. The ratio of the blends are based on industry standards offering maximum effect.
Blends such as Einar® 543 and Einar® 544 offer a very convenient way to apply EPS coatings. These all-in-one solutions complete with zink stearate eliminates the need to handle several different individual products. The complete coating formulation is an easy-to-use pre-blended formulation offering easy dosing and accuracy, better and faster handling and options for additive inventory optimization.

Ageing modifiers for PE and PP foams
Einar® 601 for antistat applications
The use of efficient antistats in PE and PP foam is particularly important in the packaging of sensitive electronics, where static build-up may may result in electrostatic discharge that will be detrimental to circuit boards and other electronic components. Einar® 601 is a proven performer, delivering excellent antistat protection to PE foam even at low humidity conditions.
Einar® 601 has no adverse effect on foam stability. The product is a 100% amine and amide free solution and will not interact with ageing modifiers such as Einar® 207. Due to its chemistry there are also no issues with stress cracking of polycarbonate when packaging materials are in direct contact with packaged electronic components.
Einar® 201, 204 and 207, efficient ageing modifiers
The high consistent quality of Einar® ageing modifiers guarantees reliable and dependable performance when PE and PP foam is conditioned after manufacture for release of excessive blowing agent. Concentrations vary with the blowing agent as physical blowing agents require higher concentrations compared to chemical blowing agents.
Your direct benefits:
• Highly efficient antistat protection
• No amine and amide chemistry
• Ensures high foam quality
• No stress cracking of electronic components
• Worldwide approval for food contact applications
• Consultancy and technical evaluations available from our technical team
