Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
Plasticizers are among the most widely used additives in the plastic industry. They are also usually cheaper than other additives used in polymer processing. Plasticizers are most often used in PVC, the third largest polymer by volume after PP and PE. In turn, PVC is used in a wide range of products. Examples include:
Plasticizers in Paint & Coatings: Uses, Types and Selection
Plasticizersare additives that increase the plasticity or fluidity of a material. Coating formulations based on physically drying binders such as nitrocellulose, require external plasticizers for optimal film formation. They are used to control the film formation processof coatings based on physically drying film-forming materials.
How do plasticizers affect the adhesion of inks on PVC?
The type and amount of plasticizer added to flexible PVC or other plastics depends largely on the mechanical, thermal and electrical properties one requires from the printed material. Plasticizers have the potential to migrate to the surface of the substrate and affect the adhesion of the ink. Plasticizers left on the surface of the substrate
