Roquette is launching DISORBENE 3, a third generation sorbitol-based clarifier. With DISORBENE clarifiers, Roquette is expanding its offering for the polymer industry.
Roquette has a wide experience in producing sorbitol-based clarifiers using an efficient and environmentally sustainable production process. By offering DISORBENE 3, Roquette opens a new reputable source for bis-DMBS, a state-of-the-art clarifier developed and sold by Milliken under the registered trade name Millad 3988, and provides additional capacity for this widely used clarifier to meet the growing needs of the polymer industry.
“Roquette has proven to be a very good partner to the polymer industry for the first and second generation sorbitol-based clarifiers in the past” points out Industry expert Dr. Felix Meyer, “and DISORBENE 3 has the same quality standards and the advantageous granulometry of the Industry reference”.
“Polypropylene producers in Europe are welcoming Roquette decision to re-enter the clarifier business as they were depending on one non-European supplier in the past” commented Mr. Thierry Laurent, head of Roquette Plant-based solutions department. “Roquette has recently created a new unit “Performance Plastics” to strengthen its link to the polymer industry”.
Next to DISORBENE, Roquette is offering the following plant-based solutions for the polymer industry:
•GAIALENE - plant-based resins
•POLYSORB (isosorbide)
•Reverdia Biosuccinium
•POLYSORB ID – phthalate-free plasticizer.
