Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
Phthalate Esters – They are produced by esterification of phthalic anhydride or phthalic acid obtained by the oxidation of orthoxylene or naphthalene. Most commonly used phthalate plasticizers include: DEHP: Low molecular weight ortho-phthalate. Still the world’s most widely used PVC plasticizer DINP, DIDP: High molecular weight ortho-phthalates
Natural-based plasticizers and biopolymer films: A review
Industrially, the most common plasticized polymers are PVC, poly (vinyl butyral) (PVB), poly (vinyl acetate) (PVAc), acrylics, cellulose molding compounds, nylon, polyamides and certain copolyamides. PVC processing is by far the most important use of plasticizers, consuming over 80% of production [3], [4].

- How to choose a plasticizer?
- 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. This may include low volatility, high permanence, low temperature flexibility, flame retardancy, high thermal stability and saponification resistance.
- How can plasticizers be used to make polymers soft and flexible?
- By adding plasticizers to compatible polymers, the materials can be modified in such a way that they become soft and flexible by decreasing their glass transition temperature. Plasticizers are classified according to their molecular structure into monomeric or polymeric types.
- 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 are plasticizers & modifiers?
- Plasticizers and Modifiers are part of the Polymer Additive Business Unit and comprise of a wide range of high-quality products under the brand names Mesamoll ®, Adimoll ®, Unimoll ®, Ultramoll ®, K-FLEX ®, Vitroflex ®, Modulast ®, Uniplex ®, Triacetin, Acetine, and Baymod®. Mesamoll ® is a phthalate-free universal monomeric plasticizer.
- How do plasticizers affect polymers?
- Plasticizers are substances which, by virtue of their polar or polarizable structure, weaken the secondary valence forces of polymers. By adding plasticizers to compatible polymers, the materials can be modified in such a way that they become soft and flexible by decreasing their glass transition temperature.
