For a clear competitive edge... treat your off-spec alcohol with Sodium Borohydride. J

If you have a color problem in your plasticizer, chances are it is caused by carbonyl impurities. These impurities are often present in your original alcohol, in trace quantities, and continue to build up as the alcohol is used and re-used in your manufacturing process. Diluting is only a short-term solution. Returning it for reprocessing is costly and time-consuming. And, if you are doing your own reprocessing, you may be tying up costly equipment better used otherwise.

Now there's a better way to reprocess off-spec alcohol... Sodium Borohydride. No known physical process can remove carbonyl impurities as completely or as economically. Your alcohol will work harder, longer. You'll achieve a greater product output, free of carbonyl color problems. And you'll be able to recycle your alcohol conveniently, right at your own plant. Depending on your application, you can add Sodium Borohydride liquid, powder, or pellets directly to your alcohol, treating it in the manufacturing step or in storage. Our experienced technical team will work with you to determine the most economical method to treat your alcohol for a greater product and profit yield. For the clear competitive edge . . . consider Sodium Borohydride. It will really turn things around. Free samples are available for commercial applications. Please write on your letteitiead and specify 12% solution in 42% sodium hydroxide (generally used with compounds up to C-8) or 98% powder (generally used with materials where alkaline solutions cannot be tolerated).
