Chlorinated Paraffin is a long chain chlorinated compound.
Chlorinated Paraffin is a nonflammable, non-corrosive, low volatile liquid at room temperature.

Chlorinated Paraffin contains a stabilizer to maintain product integrity during transport and storage.
Chlorinated Paraffin is used in a wide variety of applications including flame retardants, plasticizers and EP metalworking packages.

Chlorinated Paraffin appears as clear to light amber or yellow viscous liquid
Chlorinated Paraffin has a slightly pungent odor.
Chlorinated Paraffin flows only very slowly.

Chlorinated Paraffin is complex mixtures of polychlorinated n-alkanes.
The chlorination degree of Chlorinated Paraffin can vary between 30 and 70 wt%.

Chlorinated Paraffin is subdivided according to their carbon chain length into short-chain CPs (SCCPs, C10–13), medium-chain CPs (MCCPs, C14–17) and long-chain CPs (LCCPs, C>17).
Depending on chain length and chlorine content, Chlorinated Paraffin is colorless or yellowish liquids or solids.

Industrial Applications:
Production of Chlorinated Paraffin for industrial use started in the 1930s, with global production in 2000 being about 2 million tonnes.
Currently, over 200 Chlorinated Paraffin formulations are in use for a wide range of industrial applications, such as flame retardants and plasticisers, as additives in metal working fluids, in sealants, paints, adhesives, textiles, leather fat and coatings.

Chlorinated Paraffin is manufactured by the chlorination of specified normal paraffin fractions (straight-chain hydrocarbons) obtained from petroleum refining.
Ordinary commercial chlorinated paraffins are not single compounds but are mixtures, each containing several homologous n-alkanes corresponding to their manufacture from n-paraffin fractions with several different degrees of chlorination.

Chlorinated Paraffin is characterized to a first approximation by the carbon-chain length range of their n-alkanes and by the chlorine content of the product.
An average chain length for the hydrocarbon feedstock or an average molecular weight is often stated as well.
For example, a Chlorinated Paraffin referred to as C12, 60% chlorine, would be a product with an average chain length of 12 carbons with approximately 60% chlorine.

Chlorinated Paraffin that has been manufactured from pure n-paraffins are generally unreactive and stable during storage at normal temperatures.
Depending on their chain length and degree of chlorination, chlorinated paraffins are colourless or yellowish, mobile to highly viscous liquids or waxy to glassy solidified substances.
Chlorinated Paraffin is practically insoluble in water, although they can form emulsions and/or suspensions

Chlorinated Paraffin is used as secondary plasticizers for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) in applications such as electrical cables when the inherent low inflammability of PVC would be impaired by primary plasticizers (e.g., dioctyl phthalate).
Chlorinated Paraffin is used on a large scale as extreme-pressure additives in metal-machining fluids, e.g., in the automobile industry, precision engineering industry and in machinery construction.
As additives to paints, coatings and sealants, chlorinated paraffins improve resistance to water and chemicals.

Chlorinated Paraffin is industrial chemicals, which may also be found in some consumer products.
Chlorinated Paraffin is a family of complex chemical mixtures composed of varying lengths of carbon atom chains.
Short-chain chlorinated paraffins have 10 to 13 carbon atoms, medium-chain chlorinated paraffins have 14 to 17 carbon atoms, and long-chain chlorinated paraffins have 18 or more carbon atoms.

How are they used?
Chlorinated Paraffin is used in metalworking fluids, such as cutting oils and high pressure lubricating oils, as a plasticizer and in some cases as flame retardants in various polyvinyl chloride (PVC) products.
Chlorinated Paraffin may also be used in products such as paints, sealants, rubber and elastomers.
Based on the most recent data available, chlorinated paraffins are not manufactured commercially

Chlorinated paraffins are chemicals manufactured by chlorination of liquid n-paraffin or paraffin wax.
The largest application for chlorinated paraffin is as a plasticiser and flame-retardant in flexible PVC.
They are also used as plasticisers in paint, sealants and adhesives.

Chlorinated Paraffin is a chlorinated paraffin wax (C 22-C30 ) - an organic compounds containing chloride polychlorinated n-alkanes.
Chlorinated Paraffin is a white/off-white powder.
The product functions as an additive in metal working fluids, sealants, paints and coatings.

Chlorinated Paraffin is essentially soluble in aliphatics and hydrocarbons, ketones, esters, however is insoluble in water, glycerine and glycols.
The four most common commercial products used are paraffins with carbon chain ranges of:

Applications:
-Flame Retardants
-Paints
-Rubber
-Polyester
-ABS
-Polystyrene
-Plasticisers

Chlorinated Paraffin is a class of chemicals used for a variety of applications.
They can be classified according to the length of their chlorine chains, and commercial formulations may include a mix of compounds in this class.

CAS 106232-86-4 is considered a Long Chain Chlorinated Paraffin (LCCP), with 24 chlorine atoms.
Chlorinated Paraffin is almost insoluble in water, and flame retardant.

Chlorinated Paraffin can function as a plasticizing additive to for metal lubricants and cutting fluids, plastics, rubber, paint, adhesives, and more.
Liquid is an amorphous (non-crystalline) form of matter intermediate between gases and solids in which the molecules are much more highly concentrated than in solids.

Chlorinated Paraffin is a yellowish liquid made of a long chain chlorinated paraffin that contains a stabilizer to maintain product integrity during transport and storage.
Primarily used as a flame retardant additive, Chlorinated Paraffin can be used in plasticizers and EP metalworking packages.
Chlorinated Paraffin is typically applied in straight oil machining, drawing and stamping fluids.

Chlorinated Paraffin, also known as cereclor, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as organochlorides.
Chlorinated Paraffin is compound containing a chemical bond between a carbon atom and a chlorine atom.

Chlorinated Paraffin is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives.
Chlorinated Paraffin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as organochlorides.

Chlorinated Paraffin waxes are practically insoluble in water, lower alcohols, glycerol and glycols, but are soluble in chlorinated solvents, aromatic hydrocarbons, ketones, esters, ethers, mineral oils and some cutting oils.
They are moderately soluble in unchlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons.
Chlorinated Paraffin wax consist of extremely complex mixtures, owing to the many possible positions for the chlorine atoms.

Applications of Chlorinated Paraffin:
-Chlorinated Paraffin is used widely as a secondary plasticizer in flexible PVC compounds notably cable, footwear, hosing, conveyor belting, coated fabric and profiles.
In these applications it can be used to partially replace more expensive primary plasticizers.
In compounds with flame-retardant requirements, Chlorinated Paraffin is used to partially replace more expensive primary flame-retardants.

-An important benefit of Chlorinated Paraffin is its ability to reduce the unit cost of flexible PVC compounds.
Correct reformulation with UNICHLOR produces PVC compounds with comparable physical properties: softness or hardness, tensile strength, elongation at break and others, as well as heat aged retention of physical properties.

-Increasingly, regulations specify flame resistance/ fire resistant in a growing number of applications.
Chlorinated Paraffin is suitable for incorporation into PVC compounds and a range of other compounds and polymers, including polystyrene, polyethylene, polyester resins and natural and synthetic rubbers in products such as conveyor belts, polystyrene foam and glass fiber reinforced polyester.

-Textiles for carpets, carpet backing, tarpaulins and tents and Paints can be treated with compositions to induce flame retardancy.

-Chlorinated Paraffin is used in lubricants as an extreme pressure additive, where it forms a tenacious film on working parts.
In cutting oils it is used as an additive to minimize ‘weld’ formation.

-In paints Chlorinated Paraffin is used as a plasticizer for binders and resins.

-Chlorinated Paraffin is also used in caulks and sealants.

-As an excellent carrier for powders such as pigments, stabilizers and inorganic fire retardants.
