Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
Cost: Phthalates which have been used as PVC plasticizers since the earliest days of flexible PVC are both inexpensive and effective. The collapse of oil prices which began in 2015 has further reduced the price of petrochemicals, including phthalate esters.
Asia-Pacific Super Plasticizers Market - MicroMarketMonitor
High range water reducers (HRWR), commonly known as superplasticizers, are a specialty construction chemical admixtures used in specific and customized construction applications. The Asia-Pacific Superplasticizers market was valued at $1,765.1 million and is expected to reach $2,591.9 million by 2018, at a CAGR of 6.2%, for the period 2013-18.
Energetic Polymers | Emerging nanoscience Research Institute
The role of plasticizers in energetic material composites are (a) to modify mechanical characteristics of composites by improving the elongation at break; (b) to improve on the low temperature properties of the composites . Plasticizers are classified into non- energetic and energetic.
Influence of Plasticizers on the Electromechanical Behavior
Accordingly, it was revealed that high performance flexible actuators can be achieved merely by employing a simple and cheap plasticizer, thus making it possible to overcome the current technological barrier of conventional electroactive polymers that suffer from the high applied electric field usually required to reach sufficient strain
Selection of Superplasticizers for High-Performance Concrete
The first moment consumption of Superplasticizer molecules after the mixing is qualified as the cement/Superplasticizer compatibility. It is very difficult to make high-performance concrete with a very low water-cement ratio, that it will still have a slump value of 50mm 30 minutes with an initial slump value of 200mm.
