Product information on ionic liquids

Ionic liquid-type antistatic agents for resins

Our relevant product
IL-A series, IL-AP series, IL-P series

Structures

Characteristics

  • Resin transparency is maintained by optimizing the structure of an ionic liquid and adjusting its compatibility to the target resin. Excellent antistatic performance is exhibited by the addition of a small amount of ionic liquid.
  • As antistatic performance is exhibited by the ion-conductive property of the ionic liquid itself, it is insusceptible to environmental (humidity) conditions.
  • Ionic liquids show excellent flameproofness and can be kneaded into resins such as polycarbonate.
