A Strategy for Nonmigrating Highly Plasticized PVC - Nature
Nonmigrating highly plasticized PVC was prepared based on a new compound that acts as a plasticizer that was derived from di (2-ethylhexyl) 4-hydrophthalate and chlorinated paraffin-52. The as
- What is plasticizer used for?
- Plasticizer is added to polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is hard and brittle at room temperature, to make it soft and pliable for molding and processing. OCI’s plasticizer is added to PVC resin to produce electric cable compounds, wallpaper, flooring material, PVC film, automotive sealants (sealers), and artificial leather.
- Where are plasticizers made?
- It is produced by the ester reaction between alcohol such as Octanol (2-EH), INA, etc., and acids such as PA, TPA, TMA, etc. Depending on the base material, different grades of plasticizers are produced. Korea, India, Southeast Asian countries, Russia, USA, etc
