Products in Catalysts, Initiators & Crosslinkers: Polyolefins

Evonik 1,7-Octadiene 98% serves as a versatile crosslinker for various polymers, with a preference for polyolefins like PE or PP. It can be applied in its pure form or undergo chemical modifications such as epoxidation or hydrosilation. Due to its reactivity, incorporating 1,7-octadiene directly into the polymerization process as a comonomer is advantageous.

Evonik 1,2,4-Trivinylcyclohexane (TVCH) is classified among our olefinic hydrocarbons. It serves as a crosslinker in a wide range of polymers, particularly in polyolefins such as PE or PP. This versatile compound can be used either in its pure form or after undergoing chemical modifications, such as epoxidation or hydrosilylation, to enhance its functionality and applications.

SperseStab™ 1425 is a high-molecular-weight phenolic antioxidant containing a phosphonate located para to the phenol. This orientation provides excellent color and low gas fading in a UV-stabilized antioxidant. The calcium salt acts as a soluble catalyst, especially for the esterification of rosin esters. Additionally, SperseStab™ 1425 works as a catalyst in the solid-state polymerization of PET polymers. Other applications include polyolefins, fibers, adhesives, and lubricating oils and greases.

Trigon Chemie Dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL) is used as a catalyst in the manufacture of polyurethane and the curing of room temperature vulcanising silicon rubber. It is also used as a catalyst in the production of silane-crosslinking polyolefins. It is also used in PVC heat stabilizers.
