PVC Stabilizer

PVC Stabilizer is a crucial additive used in the processing of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to protect it from thermal degradation during manufacturing and throughout its service life. It ensures color stability, prevents chain scission, and enhances the durability of PVC products exposed to heat, light, and mechanical stress. PVC stabilizers are available in various types, including lead-based, calcium-zinc (Ca-Zn), organotin, and mixed metal stabilizers, each suited for different applications depending on regulatory, environmental, and performance requirements.

Zinc Octoate

Zinc Octoate is a metal carboxylate solution containing approximately 10% zinc content, derived from zinc and 2-ethylhexanoic acid (octoic acid). It functions as an effective curing agent, catalyst, and crosslinker in various polymer systems such as paints, coatings, adhesives, and rubber compounds. This compound improves film hardness, drying times, and overall durability of finished products, making it widely used in industrial and manufacturing processes.
