Global production, use, and emission volumes of short-chain
Short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) show high persistence, bioaccumulation potential, and toxicity (PBT properties). Consequently, restrictions on production and use have been enforced in several countries/regions. The Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants recognized the PBT pr

Chlorinated Paraffin Market: Shift of Production to Long
Chlorinated Paraffin Market was valued at USD 1.92 Billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 2.80 Billion by 2029, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.45% during the forecast period (2025-2029) Chlorinated paraffins are colorless or yellowish, viscous, dense oils, except for the chlorinated paraffins of long carbon chain length with high chlorine content

Chlorinated Paraffins - Some Flame Retardants and Textile
The chlorinated paraffins most frequently used as plasticizers for plastics are those with a medium chain length (C 14–17), with chlorine contents between 45 and 52% (40 and 50%; Zitko, 1974). C 10–13 or C >20 paraffins are also used, depending on the PVC or plastics type.
- What is chlorinated paraffin?
- 1. Introduction Chlorinated paraffins (CPs), as technical mixtures of polychlorinated alkanes (PCAs), have been produced since the 1930s for use as additives in lubricants and cutting fluids as well as flame retardants in plastics and sealants.
- How do chlorinated paraffins affect thermal processes?
- The increasing production and usage of chlorinated paraffins (CPs) correspondently increase the amount of CPs that experience thermal processes.
- Are chlorinated paraffin producers made to wait?
- Yongjun, Z. Market review: chlorinated paraffin producers made to wait. China Chemical Reporter, China Chemical Reporter Editorial Department, Beijing, People Republic of China 2002.
- Are Cl-PAHs formed synergistically during thermal decomposition of cp-52?
- Our previous study revealed that a significant amount of medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (MCCPs), short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) as well as aromatic and chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (Cl-PAHs) were formed synergistically during the thermal decomposition of CP-52 (a class of CP products).
- What are short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs)?
- Short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) are a type of chlorinated paraffins (CPs) that have attracted attention due to having similar properties to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) ( Ma et al., 2014, Wang et al., 2017, Zeng et al., 2011 ).
- Which method is used to analyze chlorinated paraffins in environmental matrices?
- 4. Analysis of chlorinated paraffins in environmental matrices (ii) instrumental analysis Thin layer chromatography (TLC) coupled with an argentation detection method was reported in the 1970s (Campbell and McConnell, 1980, Hollies et al., 1979). This method is lengthy, tedious and gives poor sensitivity and reproducibility.
