How Our Products Are Used
Our transportation and automotive industry solutions are essential ingredients in cars, trucks and boats.
AdvanSix PCR-Caprolactam
PCR-Caprolactam from AdvanSix contains 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) raw materials while providing the same top processability, properties and functionalities as its standard, non-recycled counterpart. PCR-Caprolactam is used in a variety of polymerization, melt extrusion, and other chemical applications worldwide. As one the largest and most experienced suppliers of merchant-grade caprolactam, AdvanSix offers industry-leading quality, consistency, and reliability of supply. ASIX uses an industry-accepted mass balance method which allocates recycled material into 100% PCR caprolactam grade. PCR grades are certified by an independent third-party organization (SCS Global Services) for recycled content, with annual audits.
AdvanSix Standard Grade Acetone
Acetone Standard Grade (also known as dimethyl ketone and 2-propanone) is a clear, colorless, low-boiling, flammable, volatile liquid characterized by rapid evaporation and a faintly aromatic, sweetish odor. It is readily miscible in most organic solvents and completely miscible, in all proportions, in water. Acetone is one of the simplest aliphatic ketones, and is an excellent solvent for a wide range of gums, resins, waxes, fats, greases, oils, dyestuffs and cellulosics. It is widely used as a chemical intermediate in the production of methyl isobutyl ketone and other solvents, and in the production of such important chemicals as bis-phenol-A and methyl methacrylate. It is also used in the manufacture of a wide variety of coatings and plastics.
