- What are plasticizers used for?
- Plasticizers are mostly used to increase the elasticity of the plastic. It consists of ester moiety, which are synthesized from carboxylic acid and alcohol units. TAOKA products, contribute to create a comfortable life by using well established long historical esterification technology background.
- What are Taoka plasticizers?
- TAOKA offers a wide range of products with the main focus on such plasticizers. A plasticizer refers to a substance which is added to a certain material to add flexibility and easy processing. Plasticizers are mostly used to increase the elasticity of the plastic.
- What are antistatic plasticizers?
- Antistatic plasticizers provide polymers such as PVC with antistatic properties. SANSO CIZER C-1000 and C-1100 are antistatic plasticizers developed for flexible PVC, urethane and nitrile rubber. They are perfect for products requiring an antistatic function such as flooring, partition curtains and footwear.
- Which plasticizers are flame resistant?
- Flame-retardant plasticizers provide fire resistance to polymers such as PVC. A representative example is organophosphate. SANSO CIZER TCP (Tricresyl phosphate) is an organophosphate with excellent flame and weather resistance as well as electric insulation properties.
- What is a biodegradable plasticizer bpc-110 series?
- TAOKA Chemical developed new ester type biodegradable plasticizer, BPC-110 series, which can be used for biodegradable polymers such as polylactide plastics (PLA). BPC-110 series has the following characteristics. Biodegradable plasticizer with high biomass content.
- What are phthalate plasticizers?
- Phthalate plasticizers offer exceptional compatibility and resistance to volatility and cold. SANSO CIZER DOP and DINP are examples of general-purpose phthalates. SANSO CIZER DOP (Di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate, DEHP) is a phthalate produced by the esterification of phthalic anhydride with 2-ethylhexanol (eight-carbon alcohol).
