Nouryon (formerly AkzoNobel Specialty Chemicals) has introduced a new dibenzoyl peroxide (BPO) formulation, Perkadox GB-50, to customers in the composites market. GB-50 will replace Perkadox CH-50, a peroxide that is desensitized (or “phlegmatized”) with dicyclohexyl phthalate (DCHP), which the European Union recently reclassified as a category 1B Reproductive Toxin.

Accelerator CTAS, Proprietary mixture of organosulfur and organozinc compounds in solvent, CAS Proprietary, Organic peroxide, Accelerator™ CTAS is a proprietary organosulfur compound to be used in combination with Perkadox PF-MT40 for the production of acrylic solid surface. It is used to catalyze and modify the rate of polymerization of acrylic syrups.

We are partnering with Sumitomo Chemical to include a new plant Sumitomo is building at its site in Oita, Japan. The new plant will supply a key raw material used for Nouryon’s Perkadox 14 organic peroxide. Perkadox 14 is an essential ingredient in the manufacture of many elastomeric products, including shoe soles, yoga mats and other rubber goods.

Nouryon (formerly AkzoNobel Specialty Chemicals) has introduced a new powder version of its Perkadox 16 (BCHPC) organic peroxide which will allow customers in the North American composites market to safely store larger volumes of product while meeting the latest fire safety standards.

Nouryon has increased production capacity for dialkyl peroxide at the company’s Ningbo site, China, by 25 percent after completing a major expansion project. The product, branded as Perkadox 14, is essential in the manufacture of many elastomer-based products, ranging from sports goods to industrial wires and cables.

Nouryon announced today that it will invest in its facility in Ningbo, China, to significantly increase the capacity of organic peroxide products Perkadox® 14 and Trigonox® 101. With this investment, Nouryon will double the annual production capacity to 6000 tons each for Perkadox® 14 and Trigonox® 101 organic peroxides by mid-2024.

We support the plastic recycling initiative and offer a range of products for the plastic recycling industry that improve polymer properties.

Nouryon’s Polymer Catalysts business line aims to continuously supply its customers with essential products at sustainable prices. 

Energy cables are essential for the transmission of renewable energy, and Nouryon's crosslinking peroxides are integral to their production.

We are unique at being the only producer of a full product portfolio for recyclers that allows tuning of the MFI of polypropylene in both directions: UP and DOWN.

Nouryon (formerly AkzoNobel Specialty Chemicals) has started production of a new version of its dibenzoyl peroxide (BPO), Perkadox GB-50, at Los Reyes, Mexico. It is the first dry BPO on the market that does not use the desensitizing agent dicyclohexyl phthalate (DCHP), which the European Union recently reclassified as a category 1B Reproductive Toxin.

Global specialty chemicals leader Nouryon has introduced Perkadox® PM-60ST-GR, a new organic peroxide technology for recycled polypropylene — one of the world's most widely used plastics — that is designed to restore performance in degraded, recycled plastic material. The first commercially available organic peroxide solution of its kind, this solution enables plastic recyclers, compounders and processors to use more recycled material in packaging, automotive and consumer goods applications that have traditionally required virgin polypropylene.
