Plasticizers | ExxonMobil Product Solutions - ExxonMobil Chemical
Jayflex high-molecular-weight plasticizers provide an optimum balance of properties with outstanding performance and permanence. Adipate plasticizers Jayflex adipate plasticizers can be used as a primary plasticizer but, more typically, are used in blends with general-purpose phthalates to improve low temperature properties.
Current Status of Plasticizer Research | SpringerLink
Benzoate-based plasticizers made from C 8 –C 12 alcohols have the following exceptional properties: (1) comprehensive plasticization performance with small side effects; (2) good compatibility with most synthetic resins and rubbers; (3) low release leading to high stability; (4) high resistance to heat and weather, low volatility, good low
Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
Most common plasticiser chemistries include citrates, benzoates, ortho-phthalates, terephthalates, adipates, azelates, sebacates, and trimellitates. Plasticizers are the most common additives used in the plastics industry. But, selecting the right plasticizer for an application has always been a daunting task.
Velsiflex Plasticizer | Benzoate Based, Non-Phthalate
As a vinyl plasticizer, Velsiflex has the solvating power that affords ample formulating latitude for optimized PVC formulations. Typical plastisol applications include calendering, flooring, or automotive plastisol sealants. Velsiflex plasticizers are high performance plasticizers. They are polar and monomeric in nature.
- Which plasticizer is best for PVC?
- Jayflex™ DIDP plasticizer is one of the largest-volume general-purpose high-molecular-weight plasticizers for the wire and cable industry. Jayflex™ DINP plasticizer is the largest-volume and preferred general-purpose high-molecular-weight plasticizer for PVC, providing the opportunity for cost savings with a good balance of properties.
- How are plasticizers classified?
- Plasticizers are classified according to their molecular structure into monomeric or polymeric types. The choice of the plasticizer is dependent on the requirements that have to be met for the final product and the conditions around that product’s use.
- What is a plasticizer in chemistry?
- The council of the IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) defined a plasticizer as “a substance or material incorporated in a material (usually a plastic or elastomer) to increase its flexibility, workability, or distensibility”.
- What types of plasticizers are used in hydrophilic polymers?
- In addition to water, the most commonly used plasticizers are polyols, mono-, di- and oligosaccharides. Polyols have been found to be particularly effective for use in plasticized hydrophilic polymers .
- What is the global production of plasticizers for PVC?
- In 2020, the global annual production of plasticizers for PVC amounted to 9965.5 kilotons . Despite the availability of diverse plasticizers, petroleum-based plasticizers, especially di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), remain dominant in the global market (65 %) .
- Why are plasticizers important in biopolymer-based films & coatings production?
- In biopolymer-based films and coatings production, plasticizers are also essential additives since they can improve flexibility and handling of films, maintain integrity and avoid pores and cracks in the polymeric matrix .
