Chemtura (NYSE: CEM) announces the launch of their new, Mark® mixed metal, liquid stabilizer range of additives for PVC that are free of ptBBA (para-tertiarybutyl benzoic acid), nonyl phenol and 2-EHA (2-ethyl hexanoic acid). The substances in our mixed metals have been successfully pre-registered under REACH and do not contain any components which may be subject to authorization such as carcinogenic, mutagenic or reprotoxic (CMR) materials.
The new stabilizers will be available in two ranges, the Mark® 800 series and Mark® 900 series. Designed to perform in applications where traditional liquid mixed metals are currently used, these new ranges are the latest contribution to Chemtura’s “Greener is Better” theme in new product development. This means that the new mixed metal stabilizers have been screened to ensure they are more sustainable additive solutions than the products they replace. Mark® 800 and Mark® 900 products complement Chemtura’s existing REACH friendly stabilizer ranges such as the Mark® OBS, Mark® EZ and Mark® CZ series.
