TheproductionprocessofEXOLIT™OP
The reaction of the gas ethylene with a dissolved phosphorus-containing salt leads to the salt sodium diethylphosphinate. The final product DEPAL – the basic ingredient of Exolit™ OP formulations – is formed by mixing with an aluminum salt. DEPAL is then filtered off and dried.
