All grades of CP are insoluble in water but soluble in benzene toluene etc. and have extremely low vapor pressure.

Advantages

There are four main advantages while using KLJ CPW.

• Very light colour.

• Excellent Thermal & Heat Stability.

• Wide variety of grades available for different end uses.

• Consistent quality due to availability of adequate stocks of appropriate raw materials.

Application

Major application for CP is as a secondry plasticizer, generally used in conjunction with some primary plasticizer such as DOP, DINP, DBP, etc. It imparts a number of technical benefits to flexible PVC, out of which the most significant is the enhancement of flame retardant properties for PVC flooring and Cable.

CP is also recognized as one of the most effective additives for lubricants used in of a wide range machining and engineering operations.
