Published May 2025. Flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) accounts for 80–90% of global plasticizer consumption. Flexible PVC (and thus plasticizers) is found in the following applications: construction (flooring, wall coverings), electrical (wire and cable jacketing), consumer goods (toys, footwear, etc.), packaging, transportation (inside and outside of vehicles), furnishings, and medical uses
Selecting Plasticizers for Adhesives and Sealants
Because of their good weather and chemical resistance properties, sulfonamide plasticizers are used predominantly in outdoor sealants. One large application is in polyurethane direct glazing sealants for the automotive industry. Oils Oils (like paraffinic, naphthenic, and aromatic) are used mainly as plasticizers in non-polar adhesives.

- Why are plasticizers important in pharmaceutical formulations?
- Plasticizers have got significant role in pharmaceutical formulations because of their vital importance in the formulations like gastro-retentive films, ocular films, transdermal films, buccal films, oro-dispersible films.
- What are the different types of plasticizers used in polymers?
- Oily, waxy,or fatty substances were applied as plasticizers. Other i nvention polymer matrix. poly- DL -lactide- co-glycolide (PLGA) were produced. plasticizer, PEG, was added to the polymers. It was degradation-controlled phase. The plasticizer accelerated polymer. The plasticizer dep ressed the burst effect for controlled phase.
- What are plasticizers used for?
- Plasticizers make materials more malleable and less brittle by lowering the intermolecular tensions between polymer chains, which lowers the glass transition temperature. In addition to improving the flexibility and elasticity of materials, plasticizers are essential in products like PVC pipes, cables, and vinyl flooring. Plasticizers Price Chart
- Are natural-based plasticizers suitable for pharmaceutical and medical applications?
- The natural-based plasticizers characterized by low toxicity and low migration are required nowadays not only for pharmaceutical and medical applications. In this respect, most of traditional plasticizers are not applicable in this area.
- Why do polymers use plasticizers?
- Plasticizers can be added to polymers to make them more flexible. Plasticizers are small lubricating behaviour, and adhesive property of polymeric films. drug release performance. WHAT IS A PLASTICIZER?
- to increase its flexibility. The plasticizer gets between makes the material more flexible. T he polymer will where flexibility is required.
- Which substances were used as plasticizers?
- Oily, waxy, or fatty substances were applied as plasticizers. Other invention relates to an oral pulse release comprising a polymer micromatrix, a first active ingredient distributed substantially uniformly within polymer micromatrix and a second active ingredient deposited on the surface of the polymer matrix (Gadre et al., 2006).
