SYLFAT 2LT Tall Oil Fatty Acid (TOFA) is refined from selected crude tall oil grades aimed to achieve a low temperature performance, under carefully controlled process conditions and extended analysis for consistent quality. The utility of SYLFAT 2LT can be found in the long carbon chain (C18), acid function of the carboxyl group (COOH), unsaturation of the double bonds and consistently low cloud point and pour point. SYLFAT 2LT is developed for applications requiring low temperature properties.

Packaging & Availability

Packaging
  • SYLFAT 2LT is delivered as a liquid in tank trucks, ISO containers, rail cars, flexi tanks, IBC’s or steel drums (as available)
  • Typical delivery temperature is 10 – 30 °C (50 – 86 °F)

Storage & Handling

Storage

SYLFAT 2LT should be stored dry, below 25 °C (77 °F) and away from direct sunlight. If precipitation occurs when stored at temperatures below the product’s cloud point, it does not affect the use of the product as a chemical raw material. Slight heating to about 40 °C (104 °F) dissolves the precipitated material. Since color changes of >1 Gardner unit can be seen over time due to oxygen or heat exposure, testing of product in applications sensitive to color is recommended prior to use.
