REAXIS® C208 (Dioctyltin Dioctoate) is a liquid octyltin that is primarily used as a homogenous catalyst for a wide range of polyurethane and silicone reactions. REAXIS® C208 is typically a slower-acting octyltin compared to the standard REAXIS® C216 (Dioctyltin Dilaurate) due to its reduced tin metal content. REAXIS® C208 is…
C218 – Dibutyltin Dilaurate
REAXIS® C218 (Dibutyltin Dilaurate), commonly abbreviated to DBTDL, is one the most commonly used specialty metal-based catalysts for polyurethanes and silicone condensation reactions. With a long history of usage in a wide range of formulations, REAXIS® C218 is a good benchmark catalyst when starting development work on new formulations. Typically…
C220 – Monobutyltin Tris-(2-ethylhexanoate)
REAXIS® C220 (Monobutyltin Tris-(2-Ethylhexanoate)) is a liquid organotin homogenous catalyst that is used primarily as an esterification catalyst. Alternatively, but less common, REAXIS® C220 can be used as a polyurethane catalyst. REAXIS® C220 is a monobutyltin -based organotin that is lower in toxicity compared to dibutyl-based organotins. Of the commonly…
C228 – Dioctyltin Diacetate
REAXIS® C228 (Dioctyltin Diacetate) is an octyl-based organotin with a carboxylate functionality. REAXIS® C228 is a highly reactive neat liquid octyl tin, given its high tin content (28%) and related small ligand. REAXIS® C228 contains the highest concentration of tin for liquid-based octyl tin products. Similar products include REAXIS® C216…
