Description

Alkanes, C10-22, Chloro is a technical-grade mixture of chlorinated paraffins derived from medium-chain-length alkanes. This versatile chlorinated hydrocarbon is valued for its role as a secondary plasticizer and flame retardant in polymer formulations, offering a cost-effective alternative to primary phthalates. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the plastics, rubber, coatings, and metalworking industries for its ability to enhance material properties and processing characteristics.

Application

• Secondary Plasticizer in flexible PVC products such as cables, hoses, flooring, and synthetic leather.
• Flame Retardant Additive in various polymers, rubbers, and textile back-coatings.
• Extreme Pressure (EP) Additive in metalworking fluids and lubricants.
• Adhesive & Sealant Modifier to improve flexibility and adhesion.
• Paint & Coating Additive to enhance water resistance and film properties.
• Rubber Processing Aid to improve flow and mold release.

Quality Control

Our Alkanes, C10-22, Chloro is manufactured under strict process controls to ensure batch-to-batch consistency. Quality is verified through parameters including chlorine content, viscosity, color, and density. While this is a technical-grade product, we adhere to relevant industry standards and can provide material tailored to specific application requirements. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key specifications are available for every batch shipped.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong bases and strong oxidizing agents. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption and minimize exposure to air.
