Plasticizers | ExxonMobil Product Solutions
Jayflex high-molecular-weight plasticizers provide an optimum balance of properties with outstanding performance and permanence. Adipate plasticizers Jayflex adipate plasticizers can be used as a primary plasticizer but, more typically, are used in blends with general-purpose phthalates to improve low temperature properties.
Selecting Plasticizers for Adhesives and Sealants
The following phthalate plasticizers have been cited as substances of very high concern (SVHC): Benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP) Di- (2-ethyl hexyl) phthalate (DEHP) Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) Diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP) Pentyl iso-pentylphthalate (PIPP) Diisopentylphthalate (DIPP) Dimethoxyethylphthalate (DmoEP)
Perspectives on alternatives to phthalate plasticized poly
The most widely used PVC plasticizers are phthalate esters, particularly di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), which usually represent up to 40–50% of the weight of the plastic items. Phthalates account for 80% of all plasticizer production [6] while DEHP is responsible for over 50% of worldwide phthalate production [7].
Plasticizers – Benefits, Trends, Health, and Environmental
One of the main benefits of plasticizers is the durability they confer onto PVC applications, which can ensure high performances for up to 50 years. Without plasticizers, PVC can only be rigid, such as the PVC used in wastewater pipes. What types of products are plasticizers used in?

- Can highly plasticized PVC materials replace toxic phthalate plasticizers?
- The highly plasticized PVC materials are promising to find application in various fields as a replacement of plasticized PVC materials containing toxic phthalate plasticizers. The study provides new way for chemical transformation and improving added value of non-timber forest resources in plantation. 1. Introduction
- Which phthalate is the most widely used plasticizer?
- Phthalate esters, including dioctyl phthalate (DOP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and other phthalate esters, are the most widely used plasticizer. It is reported that production capacity of plasticizer has exceeded 6.4 million tons around the world, in which half of them are produced in China.
- What are alternative plasticizers for polyvinyl chloride (PVC)?
- Environmental and toxicity concerns dictate replacement of di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) plasticizer used to impart flexibility and thermal stability to polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Potential alternatives to DEHP in PVC include diheptyl succinate (DHS), diethyl adipate (DEA), 1,4-butanediol dibenzoate (1,4-BDB), and dibutyl sebacate (DBS).
- What is phthalate-free and highly plasticized PVC?
- Synthesis of phthalate-free and highly plasticized PVC (b) Phthalate-free and highly plasticized PVCs (b) were prepared with the similar procedure that used for the DA-P-a samples. The obtained phthalate-free and highly plasticized PVCs were labeled with DA-P-b-25%, DA-P-b-50% and DA-P-b-100%.
- How are phthalate-free and highly plasticized polyvinyl chloride materials produced?
- Phthalate-free and highly plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) materials were produced via substituting chlorine of PVC with dehydroabietic acid derivatives containing primary amine groups.
- Are phthalate plasticizers toxic?
- Recently, some other plasticizers instead of phthalate plasticizers, such as biocompatible material and oligomer 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, have been reported without toxicity. However, compared to phthalate plasticizers, majority of them have a poor plasticizing effect and the plasticizer migration still cannot be avoided.
