    Did you know that we offer a range of products used in the cosmetics and personal care industry? 👋 Magsil® (Talc) is a soft material that provides good oil absorption properties as well as acting as an anti-caking agent. Used a lot in makeup products, setting powders, deodorants and dry shampoo. Kaolin (China clay) is a natural & gentle ingredient that can be used in a wide range of applications due to its absorbent and soothing properties. Actigel®/Minugel® (attapulgite clay) is used due to its excellent thickening properties and absorption properties with oils and impurities. This product is used heavily in detoxifying products, mattifying agents, and in creams/lotions. Zinc oxide is mainly used as a protecting ingredient within cosmetic products due to its excellent UV blocking properties. This product is used heavily in suncreams and anti-ageing materials. Maize starch is a natural & gentle ingredient that can be used in a wide range of applications due to its absorbent and soothing properties. This operates very similarly to kaolin. Pumice is an abrasive material typically used as an exfoliant within the cosmetic industry for products such as facial scrubs, body scrubs & hand wash/soaps. Hyaloronic Acid has excellent hydrating properties which allow it to be used effectively in moisturisers, anti-ageing products, face/eye masks & shampoos/conditioners.

    Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers, or HALS, play a crucial role in extending the lifespan of various products by protecting against the effects of UV, including: 👉 Plastics 👉 Coatings 👉 Elastomers 👉 Fibers 👉 Adhesives and Sealants They help prevent fading, discolouration and other forms of degradation caused by UV exposure. Including them in your products can help improve and maintain their mechanical properties, aesthetic qualities and functional integrity. HALS work through a cyclic process in which the molecules intercept and neutralise free radicals generated by UV exposure or other environmental factors. HALS molecules regenerate once the free radicals are neutralised, making the cycle continuous. This is known as the Denisov Cycle. RBH supply a full suite of stabilizers from King Yorker, including pre-mixed blends and can produce bespoke blends for you. Get in touch to find out how our products can help improve your product functionality and lifetime👇 💻 https://lnkd.in/g-_g48p 📞 +44 (0) 161 938 3000 #HALS #LightStabilizers

    Traditionally, risks associated with X-ray scans, radiotherapy and radiology departments in medical facilities have always been combated with lead-lined rooms. However, over recent years, there have been a variety of studies undertaken to find an effective alternative. Bariwall is one of them. Results show Bariwall bricks are an effective alternative to lead in terms of radiation attenuating abilities in many applications. The innovative Bariwall product range can help reduce the impact on human health and the environment, as well as providing thinner, more flexible and effective non-lead shielding solutions.

    UV absorbers are compounds used to protect materials from the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. These substances are essential in applications where materials are exposed to sunlight or other UV light sources, as prolonged exposure can cause degradation, fading, or breakdown of the material. UV absorbers work by absorbing the UV radiation and dissipating it as heat, preventing the UV light from reaching the material and causing damage. This absorption prevents the formation of free radicals, which can lead to material degradation. 👉 Plastics: UV absorbers are added to plastics to prevent discolouration, loss of mechanical properties, and cracking. UV absorbers are used in automotive coatings and interiors to prevent fading and deterioration. 👉 Coatings and Paints: They help maintain the appearance and structural integrity of surfaces exposed to sunlight. 👉 Personal Care Products: UV absorbers are key ingredients in sunscreens to protect skin from UV radiation. 👉 Adhesives: Protects against UV-induced breakdown, ensuring longer-lasting bonds. 👉 Construction: Used in building materials to extend the life of exterior components like windows and siding. Overall, UV absorbers are crucial in enhancing the durability and longevity of various materials exposed to sunlight, making them essential in numerous industries.

    Anti-oxidants are crucial additives across a range of industries. Their primary function is to inhibit oxidation, a chemical reaction that can produce free radicals leading to chain reactions that damage materials. Oxidation in plastics, elastomers, lubricants and other manufactured goods happens at two main times, during processing and manufacture at elevated temperatures, and when exposed to sunlight. This can weaken the product, causing discolouration and reducing the overall lifespan.

    Dicyandiamide (DICY) is a crucial latent curing agent for epoxy systems. Due to its insolubility in epoxy resins at room temperature, DICY activates only when heated to at least 150°C. This heating process allows DICY to react with the epoxy resin, and the reaction halts when the heat is removed, resulting in a partially cured or “B-staged” state ideal for prepreg applications. DICY is typically used at levels of 5–7 parts per 100 parts of liquid epoxy resins and 3–4 parts per 100 parts of solid epoxy resins by weight. For accelerated curing, adding a Urone at 2–3 parts per 100 parts resin is recommended. To avoid white specs in aesthetic composite parts, a nanoparticle DICY paste is ideal. Applications of DICY include 👇  - Structural Adhesives -Prepregs -Epoxy Powder Coatings -Intumescent Systems RBH offers DICY and Accelerators from ACCI and manufactures DICY paste.
