Chemtura’s New Weston® NPF 705 Phosphite Stabilizer: “Greener” Cost-Effective Alternative to TNPP

Chemtura Corporation launches its cost-effective, “greener” alternative to TNPP—100% Nonylphenol-free Weston® NPF 705 Phosphite Stabilizer— to the Chinese market at Chinaplas 2008.

Weston® NPF 705 is a drop-in, liquid replacement for TNPP, an industry-standard secondary antioxidant which is used in LLDPE and HDPE, in PVC and in SBR. Weston® NPF 705 is targeted for use in consumer and industrial packaging, household goods and tires, to name but a few applications. Chemtura is seeking global food contact approvals. Developed as DVS 005, with a patent pending, Weston® NPF 705 neither contains nonylphenol, nor can it break down to form nonyl-phenol.

Weston® NPF 705 is one of Chemtura’s “Greener is Better” Additives. These new or improved products all achieve Chemtura’s goal: to provide customers with sustainable additive solutions. Each product has been screened to make sure that it offers a “greener” profile than the product it is intended to replace. The criteria are performance without compromise, proven cost effectiveness, plus a strong environmental and human health profile.
