Plasticizer < Our Business | OCI
Plasticizers are categorized as phthalate-based, trimellitate-based, phosphoric acid-based and epoxy-based depending on the base material. It is produced by the ester reaction between alcohol such as Octanol (2-EH), INA, etc., and acids such as PA, TPA, TMA, etc. Depending on the base material, different grades of plasticizers are produced.
