Description

Chlorinated Paraffins CAS NO 108171-26-2 are a versatile class of industrial chemicals produced by the chlorination of straight-chain paraffin hydrocarbons. They serve as highly effective secondary plasticizers and flame retardants, offering excellent cost-performance benefits and enhancing material properties. These additives are essential for manufacturers in the plastics, coatings, sealants, and rubber industries seeking to improve flame resistance, flexibility, and processability of their products.

Application

• As a secondary plasticizer and flame retardant in flexible PVC applications such as cables, wires, flooring, and hoses.
• As a cost-effective viscosity depressant and lubricant in metalworking fluids and cutting oils.
• As a flame-retardant additive in paints, coatings, and sealants to meet fire safety regulations.
• As a plasticizing extender in synthetic rubbers, adhesives, and caulks.
• In the formulation of fire-retardant compounds for textiles and fabrics.
• As a component in extreme pressure (EP) additives for lubricating greases and gear oils.

Quality Control

Our Chlorinated Paraffins are manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. Key parameters such as chlorine content, viscosity, color, and thermal stability are rigorously tested. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

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. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption and maintain product integrity.
