Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
It is almost colorless and odorless oily liquid. It is very slightly soluble in water but soluble in alcohols, hexane etc. while miscible and compatible with all the monomeric plasticizers used in PVC compounding. Melting point: 43°C (45°F; 230 K) Boiling point: 244-252°C at 0.7 kPa.

Selection of Plasticizers for Coating Formulations
Role of Plasticizers The role of the plasticizer is to reduce or entirely prevent the formation of such bridging bonds. In case of synthetic polymers, this can be achieved by incorporating elasticizing segments or monomers which sterically hinder molecular interaction. This chemical modification process is known as "inner plasticization".
ChemFlexx Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESO) - The Chemical Company
The Chemical Company's ChemFlexx Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESO) is a non-toxic, clear to yellow liquid that is used as a plasticizer and stabilizer in plastic materials, especially PVC and its copolymers. ESO is also used as a pigment dispersing agent and acid/mercaptan scavenging agent as well as an epoxy reactive diluent. Epoxidized Soybean oil is the most readily available and one of the
Selecting Plasticizers for Adhesives and Sealants
Plasticizer increases the mobility of polar groups in the polymer, which increases the dielectric constant and loss factor. The addition of plasticizer generally results in more efficient microwave heating. Chemical: The addition of plasticizer increases the free volume and molecular mobility, which increase permeability of small molecules.
