Kanamoll is used as a co-plasticizer, as an acid scavenger in soft PVC process for hydrochloric acid liberated from PVC when PVC undergoes heat treatment and acts as a mercaptan/acid scavenger in many other applications, as well as a secondary heat and light stabilizer. Due to low cost non-toxic and environmentally friendly properties, as well as biodegradability over traditional plasticizers partially replacing DOP (DI OCTYL PHTHALATE) in PVC applications.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Compatibility
Kanamoll is compatible with a variety of surface coating materials like PVC, PVA, nitro cellulose, chlorinated rubber etc. Being an acid acceptor, it imparts stability to coating formulations besides better resistance to extraction by soap, detergent and salt solutions. It also partially imparts resistance to migration compared to conventional plasticizers in surface coating formulations. In addition, improves adhesion, toughness, gloss and chemical resistance of the film.
Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Type
- Standard Packing
200kg Plastic/MS Drums
Storage & Handling
- Storage Instructions
- Drums should be kept in dry conditions and exposure to sunlight should be avoided.
- Prolonged storage conditions do not change the stabilizing efficiency of Kanamoll.
- Handling
Being non-corrosive in nature, spillage of Kanamoll on the floor or human hands does not cause any specific problems. Normal wash with soap or detergent with plenty of water would be adequate
