Innovative Solution

• This is reflected by the fact that DHT-4V^® is on the approval list of practically all polyolefin technology providers globally
• The superiority of DHT-4V^® as compared to other products results from its particular mechanism of adsorbing acids based on anion exchange. In the presence of acidic substances such as chloride ions, DHT-4V^® will exchange the carbonate ions from the interlayer of its crystal structure and replace them with the chloride ions, which are rendered harmless
• DHT-4V^® can adsorb anions equivalent to about 10% of its own weight. The significantly higher capacity compared to alternatives minimizes the loss of physical properties of polymers.

Sustaintable Solution

• For more than 30 years, DHT-4V^® is considered to be the industry standard for deactivation of catalyst residues in polyolefins
• Deactivation of residual acidic substances that originate from catalytic polymerization processes used to produce polyolefins and comparable polymers and elastomers. Using DHT-4A^® will significantly reduce corrosion damage of process equipment and of the polymer itself
• Scavenging free halogen ions deriving from radicals in halogenated flame retardants in various polymers
• Rendering acidic residues in engineering plastic inert in order to prevent corrosion damage of molding equipment
• Acid acceptor in halogenated rubber, when high water resistance is required
• Corrosion inhibition in polymer-based coating systems and adhesives, which increases protection of metallic surfaces against corrosive anions
• Long term weatherability in combination with Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers (HALS)

Safe Solution

• Environmentally harmless
• By using DHT-4V^®, stearic acid vapors can be eliminated
• DHT-4V is a vegetable based surface active agent (instead of tallow)

Cost-effective Solution

• With DHT-4V^®, the amount of water carry-over is significantly less than with Calcium-Stearate
