LANXESS is one of the main producers of organophosphorous compounds which can be used as:   

-synthetic chemicals

-flame retardants

-water treatment additives

-specialties

-lubricant and oil additives

 

LANXESS phosphorous compounds are manufactured to the stringent DIN ISO 9001.

 

LANXESS is one of the world's leading producers of Phosphorous trichloride (PCl₃) and of its downstream products alkyl phosphites such as Dimethyl phosphite (DMPI), Diethyl phosphite (DEPI) and Triethyl phosphite (TEPI) to name some of the most important derivatives.

These products together with Phosphorous oxychloride (P0Cl₃) are of high purity and  may therefore be used in different chemical reactions.

Current trends in building and automotive industries, as well as in the electric and electronic sectors, reflect a strong increase of flame retardant consumption, world wide.

LANXESS is likewise responding with an attractive range of flame retardants for these industries.

 

Phosphonates based on a C-P bond show different properties for different application areas. 

Bayhibit^® - products based on the active substance 2-Phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarbonicacid (PBTC), which was developed by LANXESS, are used as scale- and corrosion inhibitors. 

Based on the outstanding stability to bleach, lye, chlorine and bromine and their optimal environmental profile, Bayhibit ® products can be used as additives in cleaning agents, for cooling and processing water. This success is based on the high quality which we can guarantee with our longstanding production track record.

 

LANXESS is the leading producer of phosphorous compounds, characterized by their high purity. This applies especially to dialkyl phosphates. Based on their variety of properties, they can be used as defoaming agents like Tributyl phosphate, or as extraction agents for the liquid-liquid extraction like

Baysolvex^® D2EHPA or Tributyl phosphate or as solvents, antistatic and wetting agents for the textile industry. 

Our products can be also used as processing aids, plasticizers, viscosity depressors and catalysts in chemical synthesis.

 

Lubricants are high performance products. They are tailored blends of synthetic base stocks and performance additives.

LANXESS offers a range of products based on phosphorous, which are added to synthetic base stock to confer properties that are necessary for lubrication which do not exist in the base stock.
