Definition of a stabiliser

It is not possible to cure alone the PVC resin generally the processing temperature to cure a PVC resin is around 200oC. If processed alone the PVC resin will undergo degradation and will become black. It is necessary to add 2-3 phr of a metal soap called stabiliser which protects the resin to degrade and besides the stabilisers are imparting to the PVC resin a resistance against sun light degradation.

Liquid PVC stabilisers produced by Vatan Chemicals.

When using techniques as extrusion or calendering where working conditions are severe and much friction helps an early degradation of the resin it is necessary to use a heavy duty stabiliser. Those stabilisers are containing barium cadmium V STAB PV 100 is a stabiliser prepared for that purpose. To the industry of artificial leather and where blow molding techniques are used we recommend the use of calcium zinc non toxic stabilisers preferred also by the E.E.C our liquid stabiliser V STAB CZ is tailored for that purpose. The artifical leather industry has a potential production of foamed PVC. The blowing agent being in general ADC, it is necessary to use a kicker stabiliser which helps the decomposition and the blowing of ADC again we recommend the use of V STAB KZN a potassium-zinc liquid stabiliser with non toxic character and conforming to the requirements of the E.E.C. Vatan chemicals is producing a lead based liquid stabiliser to be used in PVC cable formulations. The property of V STAB P3 is that it is replacing the powder lead tribasic sulphate. The metering of the liquid stebiliser is much more easy and protects longer time cable from the degradation caused by UV rays. V STAB P3 can be used also in the formulation of coloured garden hoses. Stocking: All our stabilisers can be stocked in closed area and normal room temperature conditions for two years.
