PVC heat stabilizer is an inevitable additive in PVC processing. It can inhibit the degradation of PVC molecules by replacing unstable chlorine atoms, neutralizing hydrogen chloride and reacting with unsaturated sites, so to increase the thermal stability of PVC. The heat stabilizers mainly include lead, Ca-Zn, Sn, etc. Due to their different compositions, their properties and uses are also different. However, its future research is developing towards non-toxic, environmentally friendly, efficient, multi-functional, cost-effective heat stabilizers.
The formulation of PVC heat stabilizer requires the addition of lubricants to assist the heat stabilization effect, while reducing the viscosity of the PVC melt, lowering the processing temperature and achieving better thermal stability. The Rallychem lubricants are available in a variety of stabilizers with advantages by batches stability, ensuring consistent customer usage and reducing processing fluctuations.
