INTRODUCTION PCC Exol SA was created by merge of PCC Exol SA and Surfactants Business Unit of PCC Rokita SA. The Company’s core scope of operation is the manufacture and sale of surfactants. The company is headquartered in Brzeg Dolny, where is located manufacturing unit of anionic and nonionic surfactants. Moreover, in 2011, there was start-up of new production unit of nonionic surfactants (ethoxylation plant) in Płock. The flexibility of production allows to offer a wide range of anionic and nonionic surfactants according to the current needs of our customers. As one of the leading manufacturers of chemical products, the company is continuing to undertake investment activities with using modern technologies and based on the principle of sustainable development.

CHEMICAL NATURE Rokamers products line represents group of nonionic surfactants of the EO/PO block copolymers. Most of Rokamers are block copolymers in which the central polypropylene glycol group is flanked by two polyethylene glycol groups. Structure of these products can be represented by following formula:

HO (CH2CH2O)x[CH(CH3)CH2O]n(CH2CH2O)yH

where n = average number of propylene oxide units x+y = average number of ethylene oxide units

Rokamer R2800 is a single representative of block copolymer in which the central polyethylene oxide block is flanked by two polypropylene oxide blocks, as shown by the following formula:

HO(CH(CH3)CH2O)x[CH2CH2O]n(CH(CH3)CH2O)yH

where x+y = average number of propylene oxide units n = average number of ethylene oxide units

Rokamer G3800 is a single representative of ethoxylated and propoxylated glycerine.

APPLICATION Block copolymers are multipurpose products which are used in variety of applications, where antifoaming, dispersing and wetting properties plays important role, i.e. .in detergents, or I&I applications. They can be used in rinse aids, hard surface cleaners (also CIP), metal cleaners and also as a laundry aids. Due to their unique structure block copolymers have good emulsifying properties. Hence they can be used in agriculture, paints and coatings and other applications. Characteristic property of Rokamers is their defoaming character. They can be used in fermentation processes, textile industry and water treatment where foaming is not require. Summarizing, Rokamer products line can find application in following areas:

• AUTOMATIC DISHWASHING DETERGENTS AND RINSE AIDS • PAINT AND COATINGS • TEXTILE INDUSTRY • LAUNDRY DETERGENTS

• HARD SURFACE CLEANERS • FERMENTATION PROCESSES • AGRICULTURE • METAL CLEANING • PULP AND PAPER

• WATER TREATMENT

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (OTHER PROPERTIES) SOLUBILITY Solubility of Rokamer series in water depends on EO/PO ratio. Solubility of these products increases with increasing ethoxylation degree and decreases with increasing propoxylation degree. Characteristic property of these products is their better solubility in cold water than in hot water. Solubility in water and other solvents has been shown in Table 2.

WETTING PROPERTY The capability to effective wetting is a necessary and required property of surfactants in a large number of applications. Rokamer series exhibits good wetting properties at higher concentrations. The capability of wetting cotton fabric was determined according to EN 1772:2001 with the use of block copolymers solutions with a concentration in the range between 1 and 10 g/l in deionised water. In the analyses the “Cotton fabric for wetting” according to ISO 8022:490 was used. The measurement temperature was 20°C.

FOAMING CAPABILITY Determination of the foaming capability was preformed according to PN-ISO 696:1994 (the modified Ross-Miles method) for solution with a concentration of 1.0 g/l in deionised water at a temperature of 25ºC. Products from Rokamer series display no foaming capability or very poor foaming. Products with polyethylene glycol content below 30% exhibits also antifoaming properties and can be used as defoaming agents.

KOSHER CERTIFICATION KOSHER CERTIFICATION PLAYS A VERY IMPORTANT ROLE IN FOOD INDUSTRY. “Kosher” is a Hebrew word that literally means “fit” or “proper.” When used in relation to food products, “kosher” means that the item in question meets the dietary requirements of Jewish law. Because of the myriad changes in the food market, it has become an absolute necessity for food production facilities wishing to serve the kosher consumer to obtain certification from a reliable certifying agency.

The role of kosher supervision is to check the source of all ingredients, provide for the kosher status of any equipment used to process the product, and to set up a system by which the integrity of both ingredients and equipment is maintained. PCC EXOL SA has in portfolio Rokamer R2800 and Rokamer G3800 which are strictly kosher for Passover and pareve. A Certificate of Kashrut for this products is available upon request.

To be certified Kosher, all ingredients in every product - and the process of preparing the product, package - must be certified for kosher-compliance too.
