What is the best alternative to DEHP for medical-grade PVC
Two alternatives that have received considerable attention in the medical device industry, according to Galland, are TOTM, a trimellitate ester which Teknor Apex manufactures and sells primarily in the wire and cable industry because of its low volatility, and DOTP, a terephthalate that Teknor Apex does not produce but also uses in its
Alternative plasticizer - GYC TOTM | ChemSec Marketplace
TOTM - trioctyl trimellitate - phthalate free plasticizer alternative. TOTM has low volatility and low migration and its electric resistivity and heat resistance are excellent. The wire and cable to which TOTM is applied in the process can pass USA s UL 62105°C class. TOTM’s migration and water extraction are lower than those of DIDP.
TOTM (Tris (2-Ethylhexyl) Trimellitate) Plasticizer | Eastman
Eastman TOTM Plasticizer (Tris (2-Ethylhexyl) Trimellitate) is the ideal PVC plasticizer for use in applications where low volatility is of supreme importance. These applications include wire and cable insulation (TOTM-CA) and interior automotive. Eastman TOTM plasticizer has unique low migration properties and extraction resistance
Quantification of five plasticizers used in PVC tubing
After extraction from PVC tubes by diluting with THF and precipitating PVC with ethanol, the plasticizers were quantified by GC–MS with high sensitivity (LOD between 0.06 and 0.25 μg/mL and LOQ between 0.01 and 2.0 μg/mL, depending on the plasticizer).
Oxofine TOTM - Specialty Plasticizer
Plasticizers. Oxofine TOTM. Oxofine TOTM is produced using our high high quality 2-EH and trimellitic anhydride. It is manufactured according to a proven technology which guarantees its highest quality and production stability. Oxofine TOTM can be used as primary or functional plasticizer in combination with other plasticizers.
