CPW
Chlorinated Paraffins are straight-chain hydrocarbons that are manufactured by chlorinating the paraffins. Chlorinated Paraffins are made by chlorinating paraffin fractions obtained from petroleum distillation. Chiorinated Paraffins are classified according to their carbon-chain length (SCCP, MCCP & LCCP) and percentage of chlorination. Carbon-chain lengths generally range from C-10 to C-30 and chlorination ranges from approximately 35% to greater than 70% by weight. The three most common commercial feedstocks used are paraffins with carbon number ranges of: Short-chain (C10-13). Medium chain (C14-17) and Long-chain (C18-30), it is used as secondary plasticizer for PVC and as a plasticizer, flame retardant for rubber compounding, paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants, also used as a metal working fluick, cutting fluids, etc.
Application & Usage
- Used as a secondary plasticizer for PVC resins. plasticizer extender in synthetic rubber, chlorinated rubber, nitrocellulose polystyrene, etc.
- Used as a pressure additive to the metal working oll / lubricants used in the metal working industries
- Used in the manufacture of PVC cables & wires as a cost-effective substitute for expensive plasticizers like DOB. DBP, etc.
- Used in the manufacture of rexine cloths and in treatment of textiles, particularly for fireproof finishing
- Used in the manufacture of PVC hoses, pipes. insulation tapes, PVC footwear, floor tiles and other flexible products.
- Used in the manufacturing of sealants. mastics, fireproof paints and emulsion paints to improve resistance to water and chemicals
