With Hexamoll DINCH Ccycled TM, BASF additionally launched its trusted non-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.

Plasticizer Product Portfolio There has been a need for plasticizers ever since PVC (polyvinylchloride) was patented in 1913. In its unmodified state, PVC is rigid and brittle. Plasticizers are used to make the material soft and flexible. BASF has been a leader in the market for plasticizers and raw materials throughout the history of flexible PVC.
Plasticizers for the PVC industry are now also available based on
Biomass balanced plasticizers based on renewable feedstock 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.
- What is Hexamoll ® DINCH?
- Versatile non-phthalate plasticizer for PVC and other polar polymers, specially intended for use in applications that involve intimate human contact is the non-phthalate plasticizer especially developed for applications for close human contact. Hexamoll ® DINCH is a colorless, clear and practically anhydrous liquid with a hardly noticeable odor.
- Why is Hexamoll ® DINCH a good plasticizer?
- BASF has invested more than €7 million in toxicological research for Hexamoll ® DINCH thus far. Thanks to its excellent toxicological profile and the low migration rate, the plasticizer is approved and certified by many authorities and institutions worldwide. In addition, Hexamoll ® DINCH sets high standards with regard to sustainability.
- Is Hexamoll DINCH toxic?
- BASF developed a non-phthalate named Hexamoll® DINCH- a plasticizer that has an excellent toxicological profile and offers a well-balanced set of properties. Evaluations of toxicological studies and risk assessments by competent authorities conclude that there is no risk associated to exposure from toys made with Hexamoll® DINCH.
- Is Hexamoll a good plasticizer?
- The plasticizer with a good safety profile is suitable for applications such as medical devices, toys and childcare articles, food packaging, indoor applications such as wall covering, and sport and leisure products. Additionally, Hexamoll®DINCH has proven its suitability in textile applications such as fabric coating and artificial leather.
- Are toys made with Hexamoll® DINCH safe?
- Evaluations of toxicological studies and risk assessments by competent authorities conclude that there is no risk associated to exposure from toys made with Hexamoll® DINCH. Products made with Hexamoll® DINCH can fulfill requirements of the EU Toy Safety Directive 2009/48/EC and the relevant European Toy Safety Standards*.
- Is Hexamoll ® DINCH soluble in water?
- It is soluble in the usual organic solvents and is miscible and compatible with all of the monomeric plasticizers commonly used in PVC. Hexamoll ® DINCH is almost insoluble in water. Hexamoll ® DINCH is the non-phthalate plasticizer specially developed for applications with close human contact.
