Eastman Plasticizers for PVC
Eastman 168 non-phthalate plasticizer has been safely used in PVC for generations. With proven performance as an alternative to DOP/DEHP and DINP, Eastman 168 can be used for a wide variety of flexible PVC applications. In many cases, our non-phthalate solutions can be a drop-in replacement for traditional phthalates in your manufacturing
Eastman 168 Non-Phthalate Plasticizer | Trusted Leader
In 1975, Eastman introduced Eastman 168 non-phthalate plasticizer. Today, it’s the market leader that formulators have come to request by name. Eastman 168 is the preferred non-phthalate plasticizer for PVC, with performance equal to or better than most ortho-phthalate plasticizers. It offers good performance properties, optimal low
Phthalate-Free Plasticizer for Flexible PVC on the Test Stand
thalate considered a nonphthalate by some because it is assumed that the safety concerns apply only to isophtha lates and orthophthalates). A plastisol base formulation (Table 1) was used to test six criteria that are relevant for the processing and application of the PVC plastisol. All mixtures consisted re
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
PVC Plasticizers and Stabilizers Following Safer Sustainable
VESTINOL 9 DINP is a very cost-effective, general-purpose plasticizer very useful in soft PVC formulations with a broad processing temperature window. ELATUR DPT (DiPentylTerephthalate) plasticizer has very low Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) residue build-up, has a low viscosity, and is fast fusing upon gelation.
- Are plasticizers phthalate-free?
- nyl phthalate (DINP).Key FindingsHBN identified six phthalate-free plasticizer types, three synthetic and three bio-based, in use i ommercial PVC building products. The available data suggest that non-phthalate plasticizers present fewer hu
- What is Eastman 168Tm non-Phthalate plasticizer?
- Our plasticizer portfolio offers versatility for various flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) applications. Eastman 168™ non-phthalate plasticizer has a long history of safe use in PVC applications. It has consistently served as an alternative to common phthalates like DINP and DIDP.
- Is Eastman 168 phthalate safe?
- Eastman 168™ non-phthalate plasticizer has a long history of safe use in PVC applications. It has consistently served as an alternative to common phthalates like DINP and DIDP. That makes Eastman 168 suitable for a wide range of flexible PVC applications. Eastman VersaMax™ Plus plasticizer is a good alternative to DOP/DEHP.
- Which non-Phthalate plasticizer is least volatile?
- Eastman 168TM non-phthalate plasticizer, DINP, and 711P are all less volatile than DOP, and as expected, DIDP is the least volatile. Fusion properties were determined on the temperature gradient bar (Figure 6). Plastisols were drawn down to a thickness of approximately 30 mils on the gel bar.
- Why are plasticizers used in PVC building materials?
- Chloride (PVC) building materials. Plasticizers are added to PVC to make it flexible, but since they are not tightly bound to the PVC molecul s, they migrate from PVC products. Phthalates, the most commonly used plasticizers in PVC, are known endocrine disruptors – chemicals that interfere with hormone signaling, which is especially criti
- Are plasticizers safe?
- Awareness is increasing regarding the environment and the safety of plasticizers and a response is being demanded in raw materials as well. DIC is working to develop plasticizers (non-phthalate) that accommodate usage restrictions for Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals and food utensils, containers and packaging, and toys.
