What is Chlorinated Paraffin?

Chlorinated paraffin is made by chlorinating straight-chain paraffin hydrocarbon.

It comes in the form of a semi-solid or viscous liquid and is classified as either low, medium or high chlorinated paraffins which are compatible with PVC and rubber among other polymers.

Key Properties

  • Excellent flame retardant
  • High chlorine content
  • Plasticizing PVC.
  • Water, acid and alkali-resistant.
  • Harsh conditions performance.
  • Low thermal stability and volatility.

Manufacturing Process by Pursuit Industries

CPW is made by Pursuit Industries of paraffin wax and chlorine under controlled chlorination:

  1. Melt paraffin wax in a steam-jacketed vessel
  2. Introduce chlorine gas in a glass-lined chlorinator at 100°C for 18–20 hours
  3. Packed column HCl in water.
  4. Mixed additives that are filtered, cooled, and packed in HDPE drums, IBC, Flexitanks and ISO Tanks.

This guarantees a steady quality and content of chlorine to industrial uses.
