Lohtragon® B45 is used as a nucleation agent in the polymer industry to enhance and control crystallization processes. It helps achieve the desired crystalline structure and properties in polymers, improving their mechanical strength and thermal stability. By providing a template for crystal formation, Sodium Succinate ensures consistent and reproducible results, leading to higher quality and better-performing polymer products.
Key benefits of Sodium Succinate 6-hydrate in Polymer Additives:
Sodium Succinate is utilized in surface treatment and electroplating processes to enhance the quality and efficiency of metal coatings. It acts as an additive in electroplating baths, improving coating uniformity, smoothness, and adhesion. Additionally, Sodium Succinate serves as a corrosion inhibitor, buffering agent, and complexing agent, ensuring stable pH levels and controlled metal ion concentrations. These properties make it valuable in producing durable, high-quality coatings for applications in electronics, automotive, jewelry, and aerospace industries.
Key benefits of Lohtragon® B45 in Surface Treatment:
In construction applications, particularly in gypsum-based systems, Sodium Succinate 6-hydrate acts as a crystal morphology modifier. It enables target-oriented control over the crystallization behavior of alpha gypsum, influencing the shape and size of the crystals formed during hydration. This controlled morphology leads to a denser microstructure and significantly enhances the mechanical strength of the hardened gypsum. Its use supports improved performance of construction materials, contributing to greater structural integrity, reduced brittleness, and optimized processing conditions.
