Overview
Our production comprises two classes of products: specification products and performance chemicals.
- Specification products: these products include phtalic anhydride, maleic anhydride, trimellitic anhydride, fumaric acid, malic acid and general purpose plasticizers. Production of a specification product results in a product that has precise internationally recognised physical and chemical properties. After production, we sell these products to our customers and also use some of them as the base for further production of our performance chemicals.
- Performance chemicals: these products include catalysts, special anhydrides, special esters, and unsaturated polyester resins, compounds and special purpose plasticizers. Production of a performance product implies production of a product that meets specific performance requirements such as heat resistance, durability, processability, and viscosity and other chemical and mechanical resistance requirements. We produce most of our performance chemicals using our specification products, and sell them to our customers. Generally, performance products are high added-value products, and typically command higher prices and generate higher margins of profit.
We separate our products into four lines: phthalic anhydride and general purpose plasticizers; maleic anhydride, derivatives and catalysts; trimellitic anhydride and special purpose plasticizers; and resins and compounds.
The division of our product lines is set forth in the following diagram:
Polynt's products are split into four products lines:
- Phthalic Anhydride and General-Purpose Plasticizers
phthalic anhydride is mainly used in the production of general purpose plasticizers for various type of resins, including unsaturated and alkyd polyesters for paints. General purpose plasticizers are used to produce coating for electrical cables, synthetic leather, flexible tubing, sports clothes, coating on textiles, automobile undercoating and coating for walls, floors and roofs. - Maleic Anhydride, Derivatives and Catalysts
Maleic Anhydride is used for various applications such us powder paints, electrical wires. These products are used in many sectors, as electrical and electronic industries, including the food, agro-chemical industry. - Trimellitic Anhydride and Special-Purpose Plasticizers
These products include high-performance trimellitic, polymeric and linear plasticizers, primarily used for electronic equipment, electrical cable coating, transport, construction, packaging and medical equipment. - Resins and Compounds
These products include unsaturated polyester resins and derivative compounds, primarily used in the construction, transport and electrical sectors. - Special Esters
The family includes acetates, glycerine esters, ultraligh phtalates, citrates, fumarates, and other organic esters of medium molecular weight used in special applications like Flavours & Fragrancies, Cosmetics, glass frames and luxury goods, and as PVC plasticizers for sensitive applications like for food-contact and food packaging.
