Professional R&D and excellent quality plasticizer chemicals

Eastman 168 non-phthalate plasticizer is an excellent general purpose non-orthophtalate plasticizer with performance equal or better than most ortho -phthalate plasticizers. It offers good performance properties, excellent low temperature flexibility, resistance to extraction by soapy water, and excellent non-migration properties.

DEHP offers good gelling, satisfactory electrical properties and helps to produce highly elastic compounds with reasonable cold strength. It displays fairly good flexibility at low temperatures and some resistance to high-temperature. However, DEHP is listed by the IARC as a human carcinogen.

The idea of scrapping the use of polyvinylchloride (PVC) materials containing di (2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) plasticizers is not new. However, despite such endeavors, both PVC and DEHP plasticizer still abound in a variety of products, including garden hoses, building materials, toys, and such medical devices as, catheters, feeding tubes, and IV sets.

Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) is a widely used plasticizer to render poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) soft and malleable. Plasticized PVC is used in hospital equipment, food wrapping, and numerous other commercial and industrial products.
