Chlorinated Paraffin
Chlorinated Paraffin
Chlorinated paraffin is a group of synthetic chemicals characterized by the presence of chlorine atoms in the molecular structure. These chemicals are produced by chlorinating straight-chain paraffin hydrocarbons. Chlorinated paraffins vary in their chemical composition, and they are classified based on the length of the carbon chain and the degree of chlorination.

Processing Methods & Reference Formulations
A. PVC products
Incorporate CP during the plasticizing phase, after the primary plasticizer (e.g., DOP) is added, ensuring homogeneous dispersion in the PVC matrix. Choose the grade (e.g., CP-52, CP-60, CP-70) based on chlorine content and viscosity.
| Key Ingredients | Indicative Dosage (% w/w) |
|---|---|
| Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC K-67 resin) | 35% |
| Chlorinated Paraffin | 25% |
| Dioctyl Phthalate | 15% |
| Calcium Carbonate | 18% |
| Lead-based Stabilizer (or Ca-Zn alternative) | 2% |
| Stearic Acid | 0.5% |
| Epoxidized Soybean Oil | 3% |
B. Rubber Finishing Paint
Incorporate CP into the resin solution or solvent phase under gentle stirring. Ensure it dissolves fully in aromatic or chlorinated solvents like toluene or xylene for uniform distribution.
| Key Ingredients | Indicative Dosage (% w/w) |
|---|---|
| Chlorinated Rubber | 19–21% |
| Chlorinated Paraffin (mix of CP-70 and CP-52) | 8–13% |
| Titanium Dioxide | 23–25% |
| Organic Bentonite | 1–2% |
| Talcum Powder | 3–8% |
| Precipitated Barium Sulfate | 5–11% |
| Dispersing Agent | 0.3–0.8% |
| Solvent (e.g., xylene/toluene blend) | 27–32% |
C. Conveyor Belt Compound
Incorporate CP after the elastomer and primary plasticizers have been added. CP is heavier and more polar than standard processing oils. Adjust the aromatic or paraffinic oil content to maintain compound flow, extrusion characteristics, and tack.
| Key Ingredients | Indicative Dosage (% w/w) |
|---|---|
| Diene-based Rubber (NBR/SBR/BR blend) | 50% |
| Chlorinated Paraffin (Cl ~70%) | 15% |
| Carbon Black | 20% |
| Antimony Trioxide | 3% |
| Sulfur | 1% |
| Hydrazide | 1% |
| Process Oils & Additives | 10% |
| Sulfur | 1% |
Dosing Guidelines
A. Dosing by Application
| Products | Authorized dosage % |
|---|---|
| PVC & Plastics (secondary plasticizer, flame retardant) | 5-15% |
| Paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants | 3-10% |
