About us

Magnechem Sdn. Bhd. was established in 2006 with the backing of Rubber Research Institute Malaysia consultant. It was a spinoff from an NRFI group of companies where we found the potential of palm oil being utilised as biodegradable, green chemicals for the rubber industry.

The initial purpose of Magnechem was to produce green chemical additives for the rubber industry and, secondarily, plastics and PVC industries that can directly replace hazardous chemical equivalents. The first range of products were tested and used by one of the member NRFI companies to success.

The range of products that we offer aims to replace their respective crude-oil based equivalents. The problem the market face today is that the core plastic materials are able to biodegrade but its chemical additives are unable to degrade and are hazardous to human and environment. We discovered the versatility of palm oil. We are able to derive palm oil to various ranges of biodegradable chemicals.

PRODUCTS

PALM OIL BASED PLASTICIZER

Palm-Oil Based Plasticiser (PBP) is formulated to replace phthalate based plasticizer. It is derived from a specific palm oil grade and so far we are the only company who have discovered this formulation derived from this specific grade. It is one of the few food-based plasticizers in the global market that is able to directly replace DOP without altering existing formulation.

Magnesium Stearate

Magnesium stearate is a soap, consisting of salt containing two equivalents of stearate (the anion of stearic acid) and one magnesium cation. Magnesium stearate is a white, water-insoluble powder. Its applications exploit its softness, insolubility in many solvents, and low toxicity. It is used as a release agent and as a component or lubricant in the production of pharmaceuticals & cosmetics.

OUR PLASTICIZER

Our research lead us to use one specific grade of palm oil to produce the PBP in a new, specially designed reaction process patented by us.

PBP is a palm-oil based product that could be used as a plasticizer or a processing aid oil for rubber. It is formulated to replace DOP plasticizer and other types of crude-oil based processing aids. PBP is derived from a specific palm oil grade and so far we are the only company in Malaysia that have discovered this formulation derived from this specific grade.
