Calcium zinc stabilizers are the most environmentally friendly, lead free, non-toxic PVC heat stabilizers, and they also have very good process performances.
It is based on a combination of calcium and zinc soaps, along with organic and inorganic co-stabilizers, to provide combined high heat stability and lubrication to suit a wide range of processing conditions.
Because of the characteristics of calcium/zinc stabilized materials they are widely used in many flexible and rigid PVC applications. This type of stabilizing system can give products which have a high degree of clarity, good mechanical and electrical properties, excellent organoleptic properties and good outdoor weatherability.
