Plasticizer
A plasticizer ( UK: plasticiser) is a substance that is added to a material to make it softer and more flexible, to increase its plasticity, to decrease its viscosity, and/or to decrease friction during its handling in manufacture. Plasticizers are commonly added to polymers such as plastics and rubber, either to facilitate the handling of the
Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
There are two main principal methods exist for plasticization - Internal Plasticization and External Plasticization. Internal Plasticization A polymer can be internally plasticized by chemically modifying the polymer or monomer so that the flexibility is increased.
Plasticisation - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
5.1 Plasticization. Plasticization is a technique used for modifying and improving flexibility, distensibility, processability, and properties of biopolymers intended for suitable applications by lowering the glass transition (second order) temperature ( Tg ). Plasticizer is a material that possesses molecular weights (300–600), carbon chains
