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.
Baseline investigation on plasticizers, bisphenol A, polycyclic
The method detection limit (MDL) ranged between 0.09 and 0.24 ng/g for plasticizers, 0.07–0.61 ng/g for PAHs and 0.06 ng/g for BPA. With each set of five samples, one spiked procedural and solvent blank were run to check for background contamination, peak identification and quantification.

Baseline investigation on plasticizers, bisphenol a, polycyclic
Electronic waste (e-waste) has emerged as a global environmental problem because of its massive production volume and un-structured management policy. Since the rate of e-waste accumulation is startling and the combinatorial effects of toxicants are complex, we have investigated six phthalic acid esters ((PAEs), bis (2-ethylhexyl) adipate (DEHA)), bisphenol A (BPA), sixteen polycyclic aromatic...
- Why are plasticizers so expensive?
- The costs of these plasticizers such as citrates are rather high due to the use of expensive catalysts, forcing the users to choose low-cost, traditional options. Accelerated elimination of toxic plasticizers and the invention of non-toxic candidates have become an inevitable trend.
- How can plasticizer industry expand international market shares?
- The technological level and product competitiveness need to be improved to expand the international market shares and enable adequate space for our plasticizer industry. In 2016, Zhiyu Zhao from Qingdao University of Science and Technology carried out the “Investigations of Production of Environmentally Friendly DEHCH” .
- How volatile is the plasticizers market?
- With such a diverse range of applications, the plasticizers market can be volatile as it reacts to consumer trends, seasonality and regional supply. Buyers, sellers and traders must act quickly to make the most of market opportunities. This means constant access to the most current prices and data is key.
- What will China's plasticizer industry look like in the future?
- This will be the major task for Chinese plasticizer and soft PVC industries in the future. Phthalate plasticizers will still be the dominant type and production volume globally in the future, but those of long-chain (C 9 –C 10) alcohol-based esters and non-phthalate plasticizers will increase largely.
- What happens if the plasticizer content is increased?
- An increase of the plasticizer content from 30 to 70% leads to a gradual decrease in the tensile strength and the 100% tensile modulus and the embrittlement temperature, as well as a gradual increase in the elongation at break and the vaporization loss and the dissolution loss.
- What are plasticizer performance tests?
- Plasticizer performance tests include specifications including viscosity at 25 °C, density at 20 °C, chroma, acid value, and water content; processibility including plasticization efficiency, tensile strength, heat aging, low-temperature performance, fogging value, PVC compatibility, and UV aging.
