Catalyst Ingredients

IAM Catalyst is a catalyst used for ring opening polymerization of cyclic siloxanes. This product decomposes at more than 120°C with the release of trimethylamine. It is commonly used in polymer manufacturing.

STEPANATE® PTSA-C is a crystalline p-toluene sulfonic acid used as an intermediate in fine chemical manufacture, dye and pigment manufacture, metalworking, and catalyzing crosslinking reactions. Holding kosher certification makes it applicable in industrial products and institutional and industrial cleaning markets, particularly in cutting fluids and foundry catalysts.

TEKUCEL™ is a high-purity alumina support specifically designed for catalysts used in fluidized beds. It offers a combination of exceptional performance and economic feasibility while allowing for customized final specifications. This commercially available alumina is an economically viable option for use in fluidized bed reactors. TEKUCEL™, consisting of more than 99.5% pure gamma-phase alumina microspheres, finds applications in oxychlorination, propane dehydrogenation, and other related markets. Catalysts can be loaded onto TEKUCEL™ and effectively utilized in fluidized bed reactors.

USALCO Sodium Aluminate Solution (45%) is an economical source of highly reactive alumina manufactured by dissolving alumina tri‐hydrate (ATH) into sodium hydroxide and water. USALCO 45 is also stabilized to prevent alumina from precipitating. The use of only stringently selected raw materials and state‐of‐the‐art manufacturing practices ensures that USALCO 45 is of the highest quality. USALCO 45 meets the specifications of the American Water Works Association Standard B405‐16 and complies with the requirements of NSF/ANSI/CAN 60: Drinking Water Treatment Chemicals ‐Health Effects at a maximum dosage of 89 mg/L.
