Plasticizers Prices, Analytics & Forecasts | ICIS
Access real time data and boost your profitable trading decisions By creating viscosity, flexibility, softness and other properties to finished products, plasticizers are in demand from multiple manufacturing sectors for everything from automotive components to medical equipment, packaging and toys.
ICIS News - Chemical Profile: Asia plasticizers
Plasticizers – phthalate and non-phthalatebased – are used in flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to provide plasticity or elasticity to PVC film, roofing, flooring and wall coverings. As additives, they increase the flexibility and durability of the products.
Plasticizer Alcohols (C4-C13) - Chemical Economics Handbook (CEH) | S&P
Asia, Europe, and North America are the largest markets for plasticizer alcohols, accounting for nearly 95% of world demand in 2025. Mainland Chinese consumption is projected to experience a 3.3% average annual growth in 2025–25. Demand for plasticizer alcohols in the United States and Europe is expected to grow at a modest rate.

Nonphthalate plasticizers are not based on phthalic acid, and have a different chemical structure and toxicological profile. These include terephthalates (the most common is dioctyl terephthalate [DOTP]), epoxy, aliphatics, trimellitates, polymerics, phosphates, and others.
Business Lines
Phthalate Plasticizers Contacts Tokyo: Osaka:+81-6-6203-3962 Phthalates. Phthalate plasticizers (phthalic acid ester) are plasticizers produced by the esterification of phtalic anhydride with alcohols. Phthalate plasticizers offer exceptional compatibility and resistance to volatility and cold.
- What is E-PS plasticizer?
- E-PS is an alicyclic epoxy plasticizer that offers superior resistance to weather and discoloration from heat as well as excellent compatibility with polymers such as PVC. It is used as an alternative to DOP. It is also a popular durability improver for sealing materials such as silyl modified polymers.
- What are epoxy plasticizers?
- Epoxy plasticizers are characterized by the epoxy groups contained in their molecules, which act as stabilizers in chrorine containing polymers such as polyvinylchloride (PVC). E-PS is an alicyclic epoxy plasticizer that offers superior resistance to weather and discoloration from heat as well as excellent compatibility with polymers such as PVC.
- What are e-4030 & E 6000 plasticizers?
- They act as optimal stabilizers due to their excellent resistance to heat, weather and migration. E-4030 and E-6000 are epoxy-based plasticizers produced by the epoxidation of unsaturated fatty esters. They are monoester epoxy plasticizers that offer combined resistance to weather, heat and cold.
