Q1: What is TBBP and what is it used for in the polymer industry?
A1: TBBP (C28H42O2, mol. wt. 410.63) is a high-purity (NLT 99.0% by GC) bisphenol intermediate used to manufacture phosphite antioxidants — a class of highly efficient thermal stabilizers that protect plastics and polymers from degradation during high-temperature processing.
Q2: How does TBBP differ from being a pharmaceutical intermediate versus a polymer additive intermediate?
A2: While listed under Sarex's pharmaceutical intermediates category on the website, TBBP's actual application is in producing phosphite-type antioxidant stabilizers for plastic and polymer thermal protection — making it a cross-category product relevant to both polymer additive and fine chemical buyers.
Q3: What purity and quality specification does TBBP meet?
A3: It meets purity by GC of NLT 99.0%, volatiles NMT 0.50%, water content NMT 0.30%, chloride NMT 50 ppm, and residual 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol (2,4-DTBP) NMT 0.50% — reflecting the high standard needed for downstream antioxidant synthesis.
Q4: What is the annual capacity and packaging for TBBP?
A4: Sarex produces TBBP at a substantial 120 MT annual capacity, reflecting strong demand. It's packed in 500 kg big bags, making it suitable for high-volume bulk supply to antioxidant manufacturers.
Q5: Is Sarex a trusted manufacturer and exporter of TBBP for global antioxidant producers?
A5: Yes, Sarex is a leading fine chemical manufacturer and exporter in India, producing TBBP at large scale (120 MT/year) and supplying it globally to polymer antioxidant manufacturers in more than 40 countries, with a 3-year shelf life and ambient storage.
