Other than these, bleaching powder is used to produce high-quality paper, calcium chloride is used in the Color Lock technology, and phosphoric acid is used to make water softeners that remove calcium and magnesium ions from hard water.

• Plastics

Some of our chemicals have a wide variety of applications in the plastics industry. Our secondary plasticizer range of chlorinated paraffins are used to impart hardness, good cell resistance, elongation, and ageing properties, and our secondary plasticizers are used as a flame retardant. Chlorinated paraffins with medium molecular weight and low viscosity are used in opaque tubing, PVC compound, and footwear, since they are quite flexible. Not only these, but we also offer extreme pressure additives, and flexibiliser and fillers, like liquid chlorinated paraffin.
