Plasticizers | Eastman Chemical Company
Your business, however, needs more than reliable plasticizers—it needs a reliable plasticizer manufacturer. As the world’s number one producer of non-phthalate plasticizers, Eastman has proven to be a dependable and trusted plasticizer supplier for more than 50 years.
Eastman Plasticizers for Polyurethanes
And Eastman plasticizers are making polyurethane more versatile than ever before. Our plasticizers help regulate the rheological, thermal, and mechanical properties in polyurethane, making it more adaptable, more pliable, and more extrudable in a variety of applications.
Benzoflex 9-88 SG, Eastman - ChemPoint
Benzoflex 9-88 SG offers excellent inert filler acceptance, generally provides wear characteristics, and lowers formulation costs for cast polyurethanes. Eastman Benzoflex 9-88 SG plasticizer minimizes cure interference and is compatible with both ethers and esters.
Benzoflex Benzoate Ester Plasticizers, Eastman - ChemPoint
Benzoflex benzoate ester low-water stable plasticizers are used primarily to reduce the durometer of urethane systems. They have an excellent degree of compatibility in cast polyurethane systems which allows use at high levels to achieve durometer readings as low as 20-25 Shore A hardness.
Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
Bio-based Plasticizers – They are based on epoxidized soybean oil (ESBO), epoxidized linseed oil (ELO), castor oil, palm oil, other vegetable oils, starches, sugars etc. Others – Includes Phosphates, Chlorinated Paraffins, Alkyl Sulfonic Acid Esters and more When added to polymer, these plasticizers provide several benefits as listed below.
- Which Eastman plasticizer is best for polyurethane?
- Eastman plasticizers Benzoflex™ 9-88 SG and Benzoflex™ 352 excel in improving performance in polyurethane and other polymer systems as they interact with the polymer matrix. Benzoflex™ 352 is a cyclohexanedimethanol (CHDM) dibenzoate plasticizer commonly used in a variety of hot-melt adhesive applications, based on a variety of polymer bases.
- What is Eastman benzoflex 9-88 SG?
- Eastman Benzoflex™ 9-88 SG is a non-phthalate plasticizer for use with cast urethanes. Special grade (SG) has a maximum hydroxyl number specification designed for use in polyurethane prepolymers. It offers excellent inert filler acceptance, generally provides wear characteristics, and lowers formulation costs for cast polyurethanes.
- What is Eastman plastic?
- Eastman's depolymerization plant uses a process that breaks down plastic into its component monomers, dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) and ethylene glycol (EG). Eastman calls its technology 'polyester renewal technology'.
- What is Eastman thermoplastic polyurethane?
- Color, max. Eastman ThermollanTM thermoplastic polyurethane offers the chemical and mechanical resistance valued in many types of footwear, including football cleats and safety shoes. Its versatility allows both rigid and flexible formulations without compromising comfort and aesthetics.
- Is Eastman 168 a good plasticizer?
- Eastman 168TM non-phthalate plasticizer, an excellent general-purpose, non-ortho-phthalate plasticizer with performance equal to or better than most ortho-phthalate plasticizers. It offers good performance properties, excellent low-temperature flexibility, resistance to extraction by soapy water and excellent nonmigration properties.
- What is Eastman viernoltm polymeric plasticizer?
- Table 4. Eastman ViernolTM polymeric plasticizers Color, max. (Hazen) Eastman offers a wide range of tailor-made polyester polyols, providing different performance and applications of the combination of several diacids, anhydrides and diols in varied proportions.
