Plasticizers
In a wide variety of applications, BASF’s plasticizers help make numerous products flexible. At the same time, they ensure reliable protection against bad weather and extreme temperatures, helping the products to last longer, function better and maintain their value. When stability meets flexibility, it’s because at BASF, we create chemistry.
Acrylic Monomers
Acrylic monomers are the base material for a diverse range of applications and end products. BASF offers acrylic acid as well as the whole product range of acrylic monomers. More Applications Acrylic monomers are all around us and form part of our everyday lives in diverse guises.
Acrylates and Methacrylates supplier and distributor - Parchem
4. 5. Parchem is the premier supplier of acrylates for manufacturers of resins and coatings all over the world. Acrylate monomers, polymers, and their derivatives are essential raw-material building blocks for several industrial manufacturing processes including adhesives, acrylic coatings, textiles, acrylic resins and plastics.
Acrylates | LG Chem
Sole manufacturer of high-quality acrylic acid in Korea. Acrylate molecules contain double bonds and functional groups, which makes it highly responsive and excellent at various chemical reactions. It is used as a main material for acrylic, fibers, coatings, etc. LG Chem is Korea's only acrylic acid manufacturer, producing high-quality products
DEVELOPMENT OF NEXT-GENERATION ESTER PLASTICIZERS FOR HIGH
along the polymer backbone. Examples of typical acrylic monomers and comonomers are shown in Scheme 1. It is important to point out that due to the high acrylic monomer content, both types of acrylic elastomers are quite polar. Thus, the use of higher polarity ester plasticizers is critical to assure optimal compatibility and compound performance.
- 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
- Why are plasticizer prices rising in Asia-Pacific?
- Asia The price trend for plasticizers showed an upwards trend in the the Asia-Pacific region during the first quarter owing to the domestic polymer segment's increased demand for the product as a result of better offtakes from China’s construction sector.
- Why did plasticizer prices rise sharply in Q1 2022?
- Plasticizers prices rose sharply in Q1 2022 as a result of the sharp rise in crude oil prices and improved downstream demand. The price of dioctyl phthalate averaged 1875 USD/MT towards the end of first sector. The increase in upstream value prices and the strengthening domestic market demand were the main factors influencing this price shift.
- What is a plasticiser or dispersant?
- A Plasticiser or dispersant refers to an additive that decreases the viscosity, or simply reduces the plasticity of a material, usually a plastic. Plasticiser enhances the flexibility and resilience of a material to which it is added. Thus, these are the substances that are added to modify or change physical properties of materials.
