| Product Description: Akrochlor chlorinated paraffins are a low cost source of halogen for flame retardant purposes (usually in concert with Sb2O3) and are compatible with most polymers (use resin product in EPDM for maximum compatibility). Grade selection is usually based on the best combination of chlorine content, viscosity, volatility and cost for the end-use product. Akrochlor chlorinated paraffins are available in a variety of grades, in both liquid (L-Grades) and resin (R-Grades) form. Akrochlor resin grades offer the highest chlorine content, but liquids are often used for the combination effect of plasticizer and flame retardant. Chlorinated hydrocarbons are also very resistant to microbial and fungi attack.Information provided by Akrochem Corporation |
