EDENOL DOZ | New High-Performance Plasticizer
Vinyl films, sheeting and coated fabrics made with EDENOL DOZ plasticizer show exceptional softness and excellent surface properties. The broad resin applications of EDENOL DOZ include PVC, NBR, NBR/PVC, CR, CM and CSM. EDENOL DOZ also complies with indirect food contact directives (FDA).
Selecting Plasticizers for Adhesives and Sealants
Plasticizer compatibility is the key to plasticizer performance in adhesives and sealants. In latex systems, compatibility can be assessed by observing the viscosity increase after the addition of the plasticizer and by observing the clarity of a cast film of the plasticized adhesives.
Evonik launches ELATUR DINCD - a new plasticizer for durable
Marl, Germany. With the product ELATUR DINCD, Evonik has launched another latest generation innovative plasticizer. The new product, a cyclohexanoate, is characterized by a combination of much sought-after properties, such as excellent low-temperature flexibility, and high UV resistance; thus contributing significantly to the weather resistance and durability of the products made from it.
Current Status of Plasticizer Research | SpringerLink
BASF (Germany) has launched a new plasticizer product Palatinol 10-P, i.e., di (2-propylheptyl) phthalate (DPHP), with a molecular formula of C 28 H 46 O 4, molecular weight of 446.7, CAS # 53306-54-0, and the chemical structure is as follows:
Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
Plasticizers increase the flow and thermoplasticity of a polymer by decreasing the viscosity of the polymer melt. Most common plasticiser chemistries include citrates, benzoates, ortho-phthalates, terephthalates, adipates, azelates, sebacates, and trimellitates. Plasticizers are the most common additives used in the plastics industry.
- Which plasticizer has a strong migration resistance?
- Hyperbranched plasticizer has strong migration resistance due to its unique structure. Lactic acid-based plasticizers are a very cutting-edge direction that requires more research and development. These bio-based plasticizers can give PVC materials excellent thermal and mechanical properties under the premise of resistance to migration.
- Are plasticizers compatible with PVC?
- By analyzing the relationship between molecular structure and performance of plasticizers, researchers found that the presence of carbon–carbon double bonds and hydroxyl groups reduces the compatibility of plasticizers with PVC, while the epoxy groups and ester bonds can improve the plasticizing capability of plasticizers on PVC.
- Why are new plasticizers a problem?
- The main problem in developing new plasticizers is to find a compound providing good mechanical properties to PVC, but with limited migration, extraction resistance and low volatility. There are a lot of studies describing novel plasticizers that exhibit excellent migration resistance at the expense of the deterioration of mechanical properties.
- What are plasticizers based on?
- Plasticizers based on other acids are known and used [ 41 ], for example, citrates [ 42 ], but the cost of their production is much higher [ 43 ]. Esters of succinic acid are a renewable resource, which makes them an attractive promising starting material for industrial production [ 44 ].
- How does a new plasticizer work?
- Thus, studies have shown that the new plasticizer is characterized by high technological indicators—the thermal stability and efficiency of the plasticizing action—and also contributes to an increase in the fluidity of the melt of polymer compositions and the expansion of the temperature range for processing compounds based on it.
- Can biobased resources be used to develop high-performance plasticizers?
- The utilization of biobased resources presents a novel approach for the development of high-performance plasticizers with exceptional flexibility. Nevertheless, the combustibility of flexible poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) products containing high content plasticizers is frequently disregarded.
