Aryafin

Aryafin is a premium offering from the Aditya Birla Chemicals Chlor-Alkali business, manufactured through the controlled chlorination of carefully selected paraffins with specific chain lengths to ensure consistent quality and performance. Aryafin Chlorinated Paraffins are produced by chlorinating straight-chain paraffinic hydrocarbons derived from petroleum distillation and are categorised based on carbon-chain length—Short Chain (C10–13), Medium Chain (C14–17), and Long Chain (C18–30)—as well as chlorination levels ranging from approximately 35% to less than 70% by weight. This versatility makes Aryafin suitable for a broad range of industrial applications requiring enhanced durability and performance.

Aryafin is widely used as a secondary plasticiser in PVC and synthetic rubber applications, including cables, wires, hoses, pipes, footwear, and other flexible products. It also serves as an extreme pressure additive in metalworking lubricants and is used in textiles, rexine cloth, sealants, mastics, and paints to enhance fire resistance, waterproofing, and protection against water and chemicals.
