DESCRIPTION
Dibasic Lead Phthalate (DBLP) is produced and supplied as a fine white powder. With a lead content (Pb) of 76% it confers excellent long term protection on phthalate plasticised PVC compounds which are subject to ageing at elevated temperatures. The product is packed in either 25kg multi-ply paper sacks or in 1000kg bulk bags.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Its primary application is as heat stabiliser in the preparation of PVC compounds. PVC compounds stabilised with DBLP show maximum retention of their physical properties when aged for prolonged periods. Additionally, cable coverings incorporating DBLP provide the maximum practical insulation resistance both immediately after compounding and during the subsequent life of the cable. Consequently cables covered with a DBLP stabilised PVC compound are used in the manufacture of electric blankets, television sets, under floor heating and general thermal insulation. DBLP also finds application as a 'stabiliser kicker' in the preparation of foamed PVC.
