Abstract
Hydroxyalkylamines can, in addition to imparting antistatic properties, significantly improve the color, i.e., the whiteness, of polyolefin resins produced with chromium-based catalysts and metallocene catalysts. Additionally, such compounds can impart improved whiteness at a loading significantly lower than that required to impart antistatic properties. Surprisingly, the discovered improvement in whiteness is not, however, observed in resins produced using other types of catalysts.
