Phoslite® is the trade name for Hypophosphite based Flame Retardants synergistic preparation. Phoslite® was first introduced by Italmatch in 2006 giving to Flame Retardant producers a new reference product also in terms of UV performances and halogen content. A Family of Phoslite® grades is today available for halogen free or low halogen thermoplastics, rubbers and engineering polymers, but also as Antimony trioxide replacement. Main applications for Phoslite® are PP, PC, TPU and special formulations for PA6 GF & PBT GF.

Turpinal® products are high purity grades of etidronic acid and sodium etidronate which are suitable for use in cosmetics and Personal Care or any applications requiring a very low metal content. The high purity of these products is guaranteed by thorough quality control procedures (including testing for microbiological contamination). Moreover, the certificate of analysis accompanying each batch contains detailed information covering chemical purity and trace metal content. Their chelating properties make them outstanding candidates for the chelation of metal ions, in particular the transition metals (Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn) and the water hardness ions (Ca, Mg). Thanks to the chelating properties and threshold effect, and added to its chemical stability in oxidizing environment, Turpinal® can bring substantial benefits in many application fields and more specifically in the cosmetics industry.
These products are ideal chelants or additives in the following applications:
- In the stabilization of peroxide bonds, in alkaline media specifically
- As a chelant in hair cosmetics containing mercaptan groups, i.e. thioglycolic acid, thiolactic acid
- As a means of limiting hair damage caused by bleaching or colouring
- In the stabilization of bar soaps, where Turpinal® is used as antioxidant and prevents discolouration and rancidity, in particular under the influence of day light
- In the stabilization of fragrances, which would otherwise lose their strength over time during storage of cosmetic formulations.
