Description

Chlorowax 500C is a high molecular weight chlorinated paraffin, a versatile industrial chemical additive. This product is valued for its excellent performance as a secondary plasticizer and flame retardant, enhancing material properties while improving fire safety. It is primarily used by manufacturers in the plastics, rubber, coatings, and sealants industries seeking to improve flexibility and meet stringent flammability standards.

Application

• Plasticizer & Flame Retardant in PVC: Used in flexible PVC applications such as cables, flooring, and hoses to improve low-temperature flexibility and provide cost-effective flame retardancy.
• Rubber Compounding: Acts as a processing aid and plasticizer in various rubber formulations, including neoprene and nitrile rubber, to enhance extrusion and molding properties.
• Adhesive & Sealant Formulations: Imparts flexibility and flame resistance to mastics, caulks, and adhesive compounds.
• Paint & Coating Additive: Functions as a plasticizing resin and flame retardant in traffic paints, industrial coatings, and corrosion-resistant primers.
• Lubricant Additive: Used as an extreme pressure (EP) additive in metalworking fluids and lubricating greases.
• Textile & Leather Treatment: Applied as a flame-retardant finish for fabrics and leather goods.
