  • Its main use is as a PVC plasticizer in total or partial replacement of other traditional plasticizers and in particular for: plastisol, electric cables, floorings, carpets, calendered surfaces, rolled sections, pipe extrusion, low temperature compounds and AE-plasticized PVC.
  • Cloparin is also successfully used in flame-resistant PVC compounds. PVC may itself be considered non-flammable, but when it is plasticized with plasticizers such as phthalates it is deprived of its property.
  • Because of their full compatibility, low volatility, good stability and non-flammability, the various types of Cloparin are used as plasticizers in preparation of solvent and emulsion paints and varnishes.
  • Besides Cloparin could be used as additive in treatment of textiles: in particular, chlorinated paraffins, due to their polar nature, have much greater bonding to the amino groups of the hide than the animal and vegetable oils normally used as greasing agents.
