SEKISUI CHEMICAL Group is working to reduce its environmental impact across the group, and has played a leading role in driving sustainability in the chemical industry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDurastream \u03b1\u201d is a product made from CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride resin), which originally has a low environmental impact, from a sustainability perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n

What is “Durastream \u03b1”?<\/span><\/h2>\r\n\n\n\n

“Durastream \u03b1” is a product within the “Durastream” range that is specifically designed to reduce environmental impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CPVC is composed of 70% chlorine, making it less dependent on petroleum than other plastic materials.
In addition, “Durastream \u03b1” is an environment friendly CPVC compound that does not use tin as a stabilizer.<\/p>\n\n\n

Recent Trends in Stabilizers<\/h3>\n\n\n

As the molding and decomposition temperatures of CPVC are close, thermal decomposition is likely to occur, and stabilizers are used to prevent this.
In the past, lead and cadmium were used, but restrictions have been imposed from an environmental perspective and tin has become more common in recent years.
However, it was also pointed out that tin is not desirable from the perspective of its impact on the human body and health if it is not handled properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This led to a growing interest in tin-free stabilizers, and Sekisui was the first in the world to establish mass production technology, giving birth to “Durastream \u03b1”.<\/p>\n\n\n
