Plasticizer Product Portfolio. Thanks to this future oriented approach, BASF is one of the leading manufacturers of plasticizers and manufactures a broad portfolio covering phthalates, such as Palatinol N (DINP) and Palatinol 10-P (DPHP) as well as alternative plasticizers, such as Hexamoll DINCH, adipates and polymeric plasticizers.
Diverging trends of plasticizers (phthalates and non
Background European chemicals management aims to protect human health and the environment from legacy and emerging contaminants. The plasticizer market changed in response to the restriction of low molecular weight (LMW) phthalate plasticizers such as Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) due to their hazardous properties. We investigated patterns and trends of 19 regulated and emerging
Transition to non-phthalate plasticizers speeds up in Europe
Arkema is closing its phthalate plasticizer plant in Chauny, France as the market shifts to nonphthalates used to make polyvinyl chloride for medical bags, tubing and other applications. The plant closure also reflects significant structural weakness in the European PVC industry.
Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate
This page is DIC (formerly Dainippon Ink and Chemicals) 'Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate Plasticizers)'. DIC is working to develop plasticizers (non-phthalate) that accommodate usage restrictions for Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals and food utensils, containers and packaging, and toys. Examples of major applications and representative product numbers of non-phthalate
Health, Eco Concerns Give Non-Phthalate Plasticizers a Push
These two groups of non-phthalates have been given a green light for low plasticizer migration in medical-device components made of ABS, PC, PS, and acrylic that come in contact with PVC components. DOTP, HEXAMOLL DINCH IMPROVEMENTS DOTP and Hexamoll DINCH are two leading non-phthalate alternatives gaining significant ground.
- What plasticizers does BASF manufacture?
- Thanks to this future oriented approach, BASF is one of the leading manufacturers of plasticizers and manufactures a broad portfolio covering phthalates, such as Palatinol® N (DINP) and Palatinol® 10-P (DPHP) as well as alternative plasticizers, such as Hexamoll® DINCH, adipates and polymeric plasticizers. These are used in a variety of products.
- What is DINCH plasticizer?
- DINCH is the trusted non-phthalate plasticizer especially developed for applications with close human contact. Therefore it is the ideal solution when it comes to high safety and quality standards for use in many sensitive goods. DINCH is recommended whenever people are in close contact with PVC products that contain plasticizers.
- Are BASF plasticizers suitable for soft PVC?
- Our extensive range of plasticizers for soft PVC includes the right product for your applications. In addition to conventional applications, BASF plasticizers also enable applications in situations with low temperatures, low fogging tolerance and very weather-resistant applications (exposed to UV light or cold).
- Does BASF manufacture adipate plasticizers?
- BASF manufactures and markets adipate plasticizers as secondary plasticizers or for special applications. Polymer plasticizers or polyadipates are polyesters of aliphatic dicarboxylic acids. BASF manufactures and markets a wide range of polymeric plasticizers as secondary plasticizers or for special purposes.
- What is a polymer plasticizer?
- Polymer plasticizers or polyadipates are polyesters of aliphatic dicarboxylic acids. BASF manufactures and markets a wide range of polymeric plasticizers as secondary plasticizers or for special purposes. BASF phthalate plasticizers are suitable for many standard applications with soft PVC.
- What is BASF's plasticizer portfolio in Europe?
- BASF's plasticizer portfolio in Europe includes the following product groups: BASF‘s biomass balanced plasticizers are manufactured by using renewable raw materials as feedstock and therefore help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to save fossil resources.
