News Applications Process oils Cases Knowledge tank About us Fertile formulations Having established in-house coating and testing of solid fertiliser, a Nynas researcher finds that naphthenic process oils offer coating formulations capable of reducing both dust and caking issues. Read more about Fertile formulations Sanitary safe Sealants A recent study shows that silicone sealants extended with a Nynas naphthenic specialty oil display lower levels of microbial growth. Hence, Nynas extender oil can help sealant producers achieve a higher sanitary classification, securing CE marking for their products. Read more about Sanitary safe Sealants Sealing deal for Sealants Producers of silicone sealants need look no further. Nynas has developed a range of specially designed silicone fluid alternatives that are cost-efficient and offer the right balance in formulations between viscosity, colour stability and volatility.

Anna Eriksson, Technical Manager, Nynas Naphthenics, offers a couple of examples that explain why. Read more about Solvency offers great solutions Nappy change no problem Disposable nappies are changing, but not to the naked eye. The change is hidden in the polymers that make up the adhesives in their non-woven materials. Will Nynas specialty oils work in the ever-changing adhesives market? Read more about Nappy change no problem Hot solution for hot melts By boosting the compatibility of ingredients, naphthenic mineral oils are providing hot melt adhesive manufacturers with new and more flexible formulations Read more about Hot solution for hot melts Mineral oil adhesives in metallocene polyolefin hot melts During the past few years, metallocene polyolefin elastomers (mPO) have become significant market players and are growing continuously in several industrial segments. Read more about Mineral oil adhesives in metallocene polyolefin hot melts Solubility the most important property – but difficult to measure Solubility properties are crucial to process oils, particularly in relation to substances that need to be dissolved. Marika Joona, technical co-ordinator at Nynas R&D department, has investigated whether Hildebrand's solubility parameter can be used to describe the properties of process oils. Read more about Solubility the most important property – but difficult to measure Connecting the dots Pär Wedin at Nynas proposes a shift from one point to another one, from aniline point to turbidity point. Now, standardisation bodies SIS and ISO are mulling over his proposal. Read more about Connecting the dots Naphthenic oil improves artificial fertilisers The use of fertilisers around the world to boost agricultural production is both vital and constantly under critical scrutiny. Developing products that provide optimum benefits both economically and from an ecological viewpoint is an important challenge for the artificial fertiliser producer. Very small quantities of oil are employed in the production of fertilisers. The market demands optimal products and every link of the chain must be taken into consideration, including the properties of the oil being used. Read more about Naphthenic oil improves artificial fertilisers Assisting an agent Compatible with all sorts of rubber, naphthenic oil facilitates the dispersion of insoluble sulfur, the vulcanising agent used in the production of tyre rubber. Anna Eriksson explains how this helps improve the quality of the final rubber.
