Chlorinated Praffin wax
Chlorinated Paraffin Wax (CPW) is a chlorinated derivative of paraffin wax, widely used as a plasticizer, flame retardant, and additive in various industrial applications. It is produced by the chlorination of paraffin waxes, typically containing between 40% to 70% chlorine content. The degree of chlorination affects the properties and uses of the product.
Chlorinated Paraffin Wax (CPW) is a versatile additive used mainly as a plasticizer, flame retardant, and lubricant in industries such as plastics, rubber, paints, coatings, and metalworking fluids. Its properties make it an economical and effective choice for enhancing the flexibility, durability, and safety of various materials.
Chemway is one of the Chlorinated Praffin Wax manufacturers, exporters, and suppliers in Fujairah, Sharjah, Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Kuwait, Muscat, Dubai UAE.
