Overview of Chlorinated Paraffin

Chlorinated Paraffin (CP) is a widely used secondary plasticizer and flame retardant in plastic processing, rubber compounding, paints, and coatings. It enhances flexibility, chemical resistance, and fire retardancy, making it essential for applications requiring improved durability and performance.

Available in different grades (CPW 52, CPW 42, etc.), it is especially valued for its compatibility with PVC and other polymers, helping improve processing efficiency and product quality.

At ChemicalBull Pvt. Ltd., a trusted supplier of polymer additives and formulation chemicals, we provide Chlorinated Paraffin with consistent quality and dependable supply for plastic and rubber industries.


Applications of Chlorinated Paraffin

PVC Processing & Plasticizer Applications

Chlorinated Paraffin is widely used as a secondary plasticizer in PVC, improving flexibility, flame resistance, and cost efficiency.

It works effectively with PVC Resin (K-57, K-65, K-67), enhancing processing performance in extrusion and molding applications.

Rubber Compounding & Performance Enhancement

In rubber systems, it acts as a softener and flame retardant, improving elasticity, durability, and resistance to heat.

It complements Carbon Black / Carbon Black Oil, enhancing dispersion and mechanical strength.

Paints, Coatings & Sealants

Chlorinated Paraffin is used in coatings and sealants to improve adhesion, chemical resistance, and flame retardancy.

It integrates well with Alkyd Resin / Phenol Formaldehyde Resin, enhancing coating durability and stability.

Adhesives & Industrial Formulations

In adhesives, it improves flexibility, bonding strength, and formulation stability, making it suitable for industrial adhesive systems.

It works alongside Hydrogenated C5 Hydrocarbon Resin, improving tack and adhesion properties.

Metalworking Fluids & Specialty Applications

Chlorinated Paraffin is used in metalworking fluids as a lubricant and extreme pressure additive, improving machining performance and tool life.

It supports advanced industrial processing applications.


Safety & Handling Guidelines

  • Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area
  • Use PPE (gloves, goggles) during handling
  • Avoid prolonged skin contact
  • Keep away from heat sources
  • Follow MSDS guidelines for safe handling
