Natural-based plasticizers and biopolymer films: A review
Over the last half century, legislation and health safety issues have led to the development of a wide range of currently-available commercial plasticizers. They include some fatty acid esters, benzoates, tartrates and chlorinated hydrocarbons, esters of adipic, azelaic and sebacic acid.

Plasticizers in Paint & Coatings: Uses, Types and Selection
DOP or DnOP is light-colored, low volatility & odorless liquid. It was the most commonly used all-purpose plasticizer, although mainly used for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resins. It is insoluble in water & has a low viscosity of 56 mPa.s at 25°C. DOP features: Good stability to heat and ultraviolet light; Broad range of compatibility, and

Brazil Political stability. Brazil: Political stability index (-2.5 weak; 2.5 strong): For that indicator, we provide data for Brazil from 1996 to 2025. The average value for Brazil during that period was -0.21 points with a minimum of -0.71 points in 2025 and a maximum of 0.33 points in 2002. The latest value from 2025 is -0.42 points.
good stability phalet plasticizers from Brazil | Factory
Dioctyl Phthalate (DOP) is a plasticizer used in the production of flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic. Dioctyl Phthalate is one of the most widely used plasticizers in PVC due to its low cost. DOP is a general-purpose plasticizer and long-time industry standard known for its good stability to heat and ultraviolet light, and broad range
- How can plasticizers be used to make polymers soft and flexible?
- By adding plasticizers to compatible polymers, the materials can be modified in such a way that they become soft and flexible by decreasing their glass transition temperature. Plasticizers are classified according to their molecular structure into monomeric or polymeric types.
- How to choose a plasticizer?
- The choice of the plasticizer is dependent on the requirements that have to be met for the final product and the conditions around that product’s use. This may include low volatility, high permanence, low temperature flexibility, flame retardancy, high thermal stability and saponification resistance.
- How do plasticizers affect polymers?
- Plasticizers are substances which, by virtue of their polar or polarizable structure, weaken the secondary valence forces of polymers. By adding plasticizers to compatible polymers, the materials can be modified in such a way that they become soft and flexible by decreasing their glass transition temperature.
- How are plasticizers classified?
- Plasticizers are classified according to their molecular structure into monomeric or polymeric types. The choice of the plasticizer is dependent on the requirements that have to be met for the final product and the conditions around that product’s use.
