Plastics and polymer manufacturing chemicals are essential compounds used to produce, modify, and enhance synthetic materials. These include monomers (e.g., ethylene, propylene) as building blocks, catalysts to control polymerization, and additives like plasticizers, stabilizers, and flame retardants to improve durability, flexibility, and safety. Processes such as polymerization, polycondensation, and extrusion rely on these chemicals to create a wide range of products—from packaging to automotive parts.

Aluminium Silicate

Original price was: $ 1.64.Current price is: $ 1.55.
Aluminium silicate is an inorganic compound composed of aluminum, silicon, and oxygen, often found naturally as a major component of clay minerals such as kaolinite, halloysite, and other aluminosilicates. It is a white to off-white powder with excellent thermal stability, chemical inertness, and physical durability. Due to its wide range of physicochemical properties—including high melting point, non-toxicity, and adsorptive capabilities—aluminium silicate is extensively used across diverse industries including ceramics, paints, paper, rubber, plastics, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Its unique structure imparts benefits such as heat resistance, improved mechanical strength, and anti-caking properties, making it a vital raw material in both industrial and consumer products.

Aluminum hydroxide

Original price was: $ 1.89.Current price is: $ 1.78.
Aluminum Hydroxide, chemically known as Al(OH)₃, is a white, odorless, and odorless powder or gelatinous substance. It is widely used in pharmaceuticals as an antacid to neutralize stomach acid and relieve indigestion and heartburn. Beyond healthcare, aluminum hydroxide is a crucial component in water purification, fire retardants, and as a precursor or filler in various industrial applications. It functions as a flame retardant by releasing water upon heating, thus cooling the material and diluting flammable gases. Due to its amphoteric nature, it can react both as an acid and base, enhancing its versatility. Aluminum hydroxide is often utilized in manufacturing aluminum salts and in producing aluminum oxide.

Boric Acid

Original price was: $ 3.14.Current price is: $ 3.03.
Boric Acid, chemically known as hydrogen borate or boracic acid, is a weak, monobasic Lewis acid of boron. It appears as a white, crystalline powder or granules that are odorless and slightly soluble in water. Boric Acid is commonly used in antiseptics, insecticides, flame retardants, and as a buffering agent in various industrial and pharmaceutical applications. Due to its mild antiseptic and antifungal properties, it is often used in ophthalmic, dermatologic, and other personal care formulations. It also plays a key role in glass and ceramics manufacturing as well as in agriculture.

Calcium Carbonate Heavy

Original price was: $ 1.05.Current price is: $ 0.93.
Calcium Carbonate Heavy is a high-density, finely ground, natural mineral primarily composed of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃). Known for its higher bulk density compared to regular grades, this filler is widely used in applications requiring enhanced weight, opacity, and strength. It is commonly employed as a functional filler and extender in industries such as plastics, paints, coatings, adhesives, rubber, paper, and construction materials. Its inert nature, whiteness, and particle size distribution make it suitable for improving mechanical properties and surface finish, while also offering cost efficiency by replacing more expensive raw materials.

Calcium Carbonate Light

Original price was: $ 1.05.Current price is: $ 0.93.
Calcium Carbonate Light is a finely ground, low bulk density natural mineral composed primarily of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃). Compared to standard grades, it has a lower density and larger particle size distribution, making it suitable for applications where light weight and high brightness are important. This form is extensively used as a filler and extender in industries such as plastics, paints, rubber, paper, adhesives, and construction materials to improve opacity, brightness, and texture, while maintaining low weight and cost efficiency. Its chemical inertness and whiteness provide functional and aesthetic advantages across formulations.

Calcium Carbonate Uncoated

Original price was: $ 1.05.Current price is: $ 0.93.
Calcium Carbonate Uncoated is a naturally occurring mineral compound composed primarily of calcium, carbon, and oxygen with the chemical formula CaCO₃. It appears as a fine white powder or granules, widely used as a filler, pigment, and functional additive across various industries. The uncoated form means the calcium carbonate particles are not surface-treated, retaining their natural properties. It is valued for its high brightness, whiteness, and excellent compressibility. Uncoated calcium carbonate is used to enhance opacity, improve processing, and reduce costs in plastics, paints, coatings, adhesives, rubber, paper, and construction materials.

Corn Starch Industrial Grade

Original price was: $ 1.67.Current price is: $ 1.55.
Corn Starch Industrial Grade is a finely milled, white powder derived from the endosperm of maize (Zea mays). Unlike food-grade starch, industrial grade is tailored for non-food applications where its thickening, adhesive, and film-forming properties are exploited. It consists primarily of amylose and amylopectin polysaccharides and is valued for its biodegradability, renewability, and cost-effectiveness. Industrial corn starch is used extensively as a raw material or functional additive across a wide variety of manufacturing processes, including paper, textiles, adhesives, and packaging industries.

PVC Tubing

Original price was: $ 27.98.Current price is: $ 27.84.
PVC Tubing is a flexible, durable tube made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), commonly used in laboratories for the safe and efficient transfer of gases, liquids, and chemicals. It features excellent chemical resistance, good mechanical strength, and flexibility, making it ideal for a wide range of laboratory applications including fluid transfer, vacuum lines, and connection of various lab apparatus. PVC Tubing is transparent or translucent to allow visual monitoring of fluid flow and is resistant to abrasion, corrosion, and weathering. It is available in various diameters and thicknesses to suit different laboratory requirements.
