Did you know that the demand for decades-old lead-based stabilizers has decreased? With the future moving towards climate-smart living, the PVC market is now diverted to a greener product: Lead-Free One Pack Stabilizer. This article aims to provide a more in-depth understanding of Lead-Free Stabilizers and explore the benefit of using Lead-Free One Pack Stabilizers over Lead-based Stabilizers.

What are Lead-Free One Pack Stabilizers?

Lead-Free One Pack Stabilizers are Calcium/Zinc based additives used in PVC processing to enhance heat stability during manufacturing process. They are free from heavy metals and used as an alternative to traditional Lead-based Stabilizers for PVC applications.

Why are they better than Lead based stabilizers?

Lead has been a highly exploited mineral since mining began. Lead-based Stabilizers have been used for years to stabilize and extend the life of PVC products worldwide despite significant concern about toxicity associated with Lead-based Stabilizers. There has also been a considerable amount of concerns raised by the National Green Tribunal (NGT) about the presence of Lead in PVC pipes. Besides the lead toxicity to humans, Lead is considered a poisonous environmental pollutant. Addressing these concerns and the new regulations around PVC formulations led to the removal of Lead from stabilizers by one-pack pvc stabilizer manufacturers in India and worldwide. While the market is still highly dependent on lead-based stabilizers, the demand for Lead-Free Stabilizers for PVC is expected to rise further. Here are 4 reasons why we expect a rise in demand for Lead-Free One Pack Stabilizers:

1. Heat Stability: Calcium & Zinc Compounds present in these Stabilizers increases the heat stability of PVC. This can substantially improve the processability of PVC.
2. Mechanical Properties: Lead-Free PVC Stabilizers have mechanical and electrical properties that help the PVC products to sustain in various environmental conditions.
3. Safer to Use: Lead-Free Stabilizers are environmentally safer stabilizers. Furthermore, these stabilizers are not a health hazard, hence, are safer for food packaging and agricultural application.
4. Popularity: Owing to the growing use of sustainable products, stabilizers without environmentally toxic heavy metals have gained popularity.
