Rosinox®, a high sulfur content bleaching agent for rosin and rosin ester dismutation
- Rosin is composed of abietic acid which is prone to oxidation and cause crystallization
-
Abietic acid represents 25 to 40 weight % in tall oil rosin
-
Rosinox® allows a conversion of abietic acid into dehydroabietic acid thus leading to rosin bleaching
Benefits and features of Rosinox®
- Reduction of abietic acid of rosins and esters
- Increase of dehydroabietic acid of rosins and esters
- Reduction of color of rosins and esters
- Rosinox® behavior is the same as well as in tall oil or in gum rosin esterified or not
- Antioxidant/stabilizer in the treatment of rosins and esters
-
Efficient even at a low dosage
-
Easy to handle (pastille form)
-
No handling of dusty powder
- Rosinox® is FDA approved as an antioxidant/stabilizer in the processing of rosins and rosin esters for use as components of adhesives complying with FDA 21 CFR 175.105
