1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one or BIT (CAS: 2634-33-5), the primary active ingredient in Arxada's Proxel® range, is widely recognized as one of the most versatile, compatible and trusted broad spectrum preservative solutions available for the Home Care market. Aside from single-active products based on BIT alone, the Proxel® range also encompasses cost-effective and specialist blends with carefully-identified co-actives providing flexibility of choice for difficult-to-preserve systems. Proxel® GXL and Proxel® AQ have been pre-approved by the EPA for use in Safer Choice labeled products and have been reviewed by NSF International’s Sustainability Program. For consumers the Safer Choice logo provides recognition that the product has been evaluated for its effect on the environment and human health. Utilizing ingredients that are considered the safest in their class. Safety without sacrificing quality or performance.

Naxonac® products include anionic surfactants, one of the main advantages of phosphate esters is their stability and solubility in alkali systems. They can be used as hydrotropes to couple nonionic surfactants systems which are not soluble and at the same time increase wetting and detergency properties. The presence of the phosphate group imparts some interactions with metallic surfaces, thereby exhibiting some anti-corrosion and metal-adhesion characteristics. They can be used as additives in oil and water-soluble lubricant systems to improve lubricity, anti-frictional properties of the formula. Phosphate esters also find use as emulsifiers in emulsion polymerization.

SILFOAM® is WACKER’s innovative brand for smart foam control products. It covers silicone-based integrated system solutions for regulatingfoam-intensive applications, and thereby optimizing processes and end products. SILFOAM® foam-control systems are the result of a continuous process of applied R&D. SILFOAM® is carefully tested for its compatibility and effectiveness in the customer's formulations, thereby avoiding overfoaming in advance.

St. Louis Group is one of the largest volume suppliers of antimony trioxide (ATO) in the US market. We are vertically integrated with mining and production operations in Bolivia and have contract manufacturing operations in China. Specialty dispersions and masterbatches are available upon request.

STEPAN-MILD® is an mild surfactant blend with good foam quality and viscosity building. It is used for baby products, shampoos, bubble baths, liquid hand soaps, shower gels and bath products.

Tamol® grades are used as dispersants that offer specialized properties making them ideal for improving electroplating processes. Tamol® product range of BASF, BTC offers products for stabilization and dispersion of aqueous dispersions and emulsions as well as scale inhibitors and inhibitors for dye transfer.

Under the brand family GENIOSIL®, WACKER offers organofunctional silanes and innovative silane modified polymers for bonding and sealing. Their most outstanding property is the fact that they combine environmental advantages with performance benefits.

JetWhite® portfolio meets increasingly demanding impact resistance and dimensional stability specifications for automotive applications such as bumpers and body panels. The JetWhite® product range features the finest and most efficient grades from the Magris Talc portfolio for automotive applications. When the melt flow of TPOs is increased, impact strength tends to drop. The impact strength of talc-reinforced polyolefins is directly linked to the particle size distribution of the talc and to how it disperses in the matrix. To overcome any density issues due to their ultrafine grind, JetWhite® talcs are produced in compacted form to increase bulk density and allow maximum compounding throughput. Their compaction level has been adjusted to provide an optimum handling/ redispersion balance.

Wilclear Plus® is 61% fermentable blend containing lactate and other fermentable materials and water-soluble nutrients including B-vitamins and yeast factors. Is designed for rapid dechlorination of chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons and reduction of certain metals and sites where sluggish microbial activity may be hindering dechlorination.

Synative® types are high-quality esters that offer the formulator a broad pallet of properties to work with. The range includes standard viscosity esters acting as the base fluids but also high-viscosity, shear-stable esters that can be used to achieve the desired viscosity grade finished lubricant with superior performance (energy efficiency, long drain intervals, improved equipment protection, etc).
