SYLVATAL™
SYLVATAL™ is a distilled tall oil (DTO) containing 10–40 percent rosin acids. It combines the advantages of fatty acids and rosin acids, making it an ideal raw material for functional products. SYLVATAL 10S, 20S, 20/25S and 25/30S are from European (Scandinavian origin) with a specific characteristic to have more double bounds (i.e. higher Iodine Value) than DTO with an origin closer to the equator, such as our SYLVATAL D25LR, SYLVATAL D30LR, and SYLVATAL D40LR.
Century™
CENTURY™ products are pine-based, Branched Fatty Acids that deliver improved performance in various applications. CENTURY helps formulators attain desired thermal, oxidative, and odor stability levels. These benefits result from the product’s ability to combine oleic acid’s physical properties with stearic acid’s chemical stability via a clay-catalyzed fatty acid rearrangement process.
