Plasticizers
This Range Chart covers our plasticizer brands: Palatinol Plastomoll Hexamoll Palamoll This chart includes our short-chain phthalate, Palatinol M, which, though unsuitable for PVC, is important as plasticizer for coatings and cellulose moulding compounds.
Plasticizers
Plasticizers from BASF BASF is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of plasticizers. BASF offers a broad product portfolio of plasticizers for standard as well as special applications, such as toys and medical devices. Plasticizers give flexibility to PVC products such as cables or films.
Plasticizer product range for a sustainable business
BASF plasticizers: functional, versatile and safe PLASTOMOLL PALATINOLN PALAMOLL PALATINOL10-P 5 HexamollDINCH This trusted non-phthalate plasticizer for high safety and quality standards is recommended whenever people come into close contact with PVC products that contain plasticizers.
New Plasticizers based on Alternative Raw Materials
BASF – Plasticizers – Toys A long-standing and fruitful relationship Plasticizers are used to make plastic softer and more flexible. There has been a need for plasticizers ever since PVC (polyvinyl chloride) was patented in 1913. In its unmodified state, PVC is rigid and brittle.
Plasticizers for the PVC industry are now also ...
phthalate plasticizer based on chemically recycled feedstock. In the manufacturing process, BASF uses pyrolysis oil obtained from previously non-recycled plastic waste instead of fossil resources at the beginning of the value chain. The oil is supplied by partners as part of BASF’s ChemCycling project. The allocation to
- What types of plasticizers does BASF manufacture?
- BASF also produces specialty plasticizers, such as linear phthalates, trimellitates, such as Palatinol TOTM, adipates, and polymeric plasticizers in order to meet customer requirements, such as high or low temperature performance and low migration. Sustainable solutions for PVC, adhesive and other aerospace applications
- Why should you use BASF plasticizers?
- In a wide variety of applications, BASF’s plasticizers help make numerous products flexible. At the same time, they ensure reliable protection against bad weather and extreme temperatures, helping the products to last longer, function better and maintain their value. When stability meets flexibility, it’s because at BASF, we create chemistry.
- What are biomass balanced plasticizers based on?
- BASF has launched biomass balanced (BMB) plasticizers based on renewable raw materials under the names Hexamoll ® DINCH BMB, Palatinol ® N BMB, Palatinol ® 10-P BMB and Plastomoll ® DOA BMB. Instead of fossil resources, the required amount of bio-naphtha or biogas is used. These materials are derived from organic waste or vegetable oils.
- What are plasticizers used for?
- Plasticizers are used in many different applications, including films, insulation for cables and ducts, coatings, flooring, hoses and profiles. They are also an essential part of sensitive applications such as toys, medical products, sports and leisure equipment as well as food packaging.
- Which plasticizer is best for migratory behavior?
- TOTM shows the best performance in terms of migratory behavior, volatility, and weatherability. The DOP data are added for comparison. BASF’s Palatinol DPHP, Hexamoll DINCH and Palatinol TOTM plasticizers provide the design engineer sustainable options to adjust properties of vinyl, adhesive, and other formulations.
- What feedstocks does BASF use?
- BASF now offers part of its plasticizer portfolio based on circular feedstocks. For this purpose, either renewable or chemically recycled feedstock is used at the beginning of the value chain instead of fossil resources. The alternative feedstock is allocated to the sales products according to a mass balance approach.
