Clariant TransMax 300 Series Catalyst – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary function of the TransMax 300 Series in polymer processing?

A: The TransMax 300 Series is a highly efficient transesterification catalyst designed to accelerate ester exchange reactions—particularly in polycondensation and polymer modification processes—enabling improved molecular weight development, enhanced melt stability, and more consistent rheological behavior during extrusion or melt processing.


Q2: Is the TransMax 300 Series suitable for use in food-contact or medical-grade polymer applications?

A: While the TransMax 300 Series is formulated for high-purity performance and low volatility, its suitability for regulated applications depends on final formulation compliance, processing conditions, and end-use requirements. Customers must conduct full regulatory evaluation—including extractables and migration testing—as part of their qualification process.


Q3: How does the TransMax 300 Series compare to traditional tin-based catalysts in terms of thermal stability and residue formation?

A: Unlike conventional tin catalysts, the TransMax 300 Series offers superior thermal stability under typical melt-processing conditions and significantly reduces the risk of undesirable discoloration or metal-derived residues—making it especially valuable for light-colored or optically sensitive engineering thermoplastics.


Q4: What are the recommended handling and storage conditions for this catalyst?

A: TransMax 300 Series should be stored in its original sealed container at temperatures between 10–30 °C, protected from moisture and direct sunlight. It is hygroscopic and may undergo gradual hydrolysis upon prolonged exposure to ambient humidity—therefore, containers should be resealed promptly after use and handled under dry conditions.
