Akzo Nobel Polymer Chemicals offers a wide range of secondary suspending agents which are used to control PVC porosity. Our product range includes solvent based solutions and aqueous emulsions.

Active
Our solvent based suspending agents are marketed under the trademark of Active. All Active products can be supplied in drums, IBC's, bulk truck containers (BTC's) and bulk ISO containers (BIC's).

DCloud
Our aqueous suspending agent emulsions are marketed under the trademark of DCloud. They can be used for hot charge PVC technology, which in combination with organic peroxide emulsions give good PVC characteristics and reduced fish eye levels. Aqueous emulsions are environmentally friendly because of the absence of an organic solvent. All DCloud products can be delivered in drums, IBC's, BTC's, and BIC's.

Ethapol
Akzo Nobel Polymer Chemicals also produces antifoaming agents with secondary suspending agent effects. Antifoaming agents are essential for the good performance of a PVC reactor. They prevent foaming in both the reactor and PVC stripping sections. Our antifoaming agents are offered under the well-known trademark of Ethapol®.

Ethapol 1000 is an acrylic copolymer powder and is mainly used in suspension polymerization of styrene.
