Eastman 168 SG (Sensitive Grade) Non-Phthalate Plasticizer
Eastman 168 SG non-phthalate plasticizer is an enhanced grade of the industry-leading Eastman 168 non-phthalate plasticizer, specifically targeted at more demanding applications such as medical devices, toys, childcare articles, and food contact applications.
Eastman 168 Non-Phthalate Plasticizer | Trusted Leader
Eastman 168 is the preferred non-phthalate plasticizer for PVC, with performance equal to or better than most ortho-phthalate plasticizers. It offers good performance properties, optimal low-temperature flexibility, resistance to extraction by soapy water, and exceptional nonmigration properties.
Plasticizing oils and solvents for tires and elastomers
SOLANE solvents are high purity products, with very low aromatic content. (n-Hexane, Iso-Hexane, CycloHexane MethylCycloHexane, CycloPentane) SOLANE Special Boiling Point solvents are dedicated to rubber polymerization processes.
Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
It is almost colorless and odorless oily liquid. It is very slightly soluble in water but soluble in alcohols, hexane etc. while miscible and compatible with all the monomeric plasticizers used in PVC compounding. Melting point: 43°C (45°F; 230 K) Boiling point: 244-252°C at 0.7 kPa.

- Which plasticizer has a good plasticizing efficiency?
- Both plasticizers provided a satisfactory plasticizing efficiency, such as DEP, due to their low viscosity and ease of diffusion into CA, which enables a large processing window and increases the material's flexibility. CA with 30 wt% GTA displayed a slightly higher elastic modulus than CA with 30 wt% GDA (E = 2.1 GPa and 1.9 GPa, respectively).
- What are low molecular weight plasticizers?
- Low molecular weight plasticizers are added before or during the processing to reduce the melt processing temperature. However, these low molecular weight plasticizers may have some drawbacks, such as volatility, high water solubility, and insufficient compatibility with CA.
- How can plasticizers be used in industrial applications?
- External plasticization using low molecular weight plasticizers is the most widely applied approach in industrial applications. The glass transition temperatures and the mechanical properties (elastic modulus) of CA systems with different plasticizer contents are reported in Table 2.
- What are plasticizer characteristics?
- Plasticizer characteristics determine not only the compatibility but also the amount which can be added to the polymer while ensuring the thermodynamic stability of the mixture. Thermodynamic stability means the absence of plasticizer exudation at temperature changes, mechanical stresses, and pressure.
- What makes a polymer a good plasticizer?
- It is nowadays established that good plasticization implies secondary bonds, also known as intermolecular forces, with the polymer. The attraction between plasticizer molecules and the polymer must be as strong as the interactions between molecules in the single components to generate an efficient polymer-plasticizer interaction.
- Can plasticizers reduce material degradation over time?
- The design of new plasticizers compatible with the polymer at high concentrations, tailored to be effective in lowering the glass transition temperature, and with a low tendency to migration could considerably reduce material degradation over time.
