Selecting Plasticizers for Adhesives and Sealants
The plasticizer has low susceptibility to hydrolysis and this gives the product high resistance to degradation during exposure to weather, microorganism or alkaline media. Because of their good weather and chemical resistance properties, sulfonamide plasticizers are used predominantly in outdoor sealants.
Proviron Inc. - Proviplast, specialized plasticizing solutions
rubber plasticizers Plasticizers from Proviron are commonly used in polar rubber products such as nitrile rubber, acrylate elastomers and chlorinated polymers. Our Proviplast rubber plasticizers improve overall flexibility, with low temperature properties and high temperature aging stability.
Plasticizers & Processing Aids - HM Royal
Plasticizers, process oils, internal lubricants and other chemical additives are used to improve and enhance the compound processing characteristics of rubbers and plastics. Processing aids can act as softeners, extenders, lubricants, stabilizers, and strengtheners, depending on the needs of the manufacturer.

- What can plasticizers do for rubber?
- These technologies herald new possibilities in rubber formulation, where plasticizers can be fine-tuned to enhance material properties significantly. This allows for custom solutions tailored to specific applications, potentially reshaping entire industries.
- Are elastomer plasticizers good for rubber?
- Traditional elastomer polymers, such as nitrile, polychloroprene, chlorinated polyethylene and chlorosulfonated polyethylene, have for years used moderate- to low-performance ester plasticizers. However, longevity requirements for rubber articles made from these elastomers have created a need for higher-performance ester plasticizers.
- Which plasticizer is best for nitrile rubber?
- Special application information to note on our plasticizer brands in nitrile rubber : Plasthall ® 7050 – Fuel B resistance, LT, HT, oil resistance, limited use with low ACN. Poor water resistance. Plasthall ® 83SS – Fuel C resistance, LT, HT. Plasthall ® 4141 – Good unaged and heat aged LT, #3 oil resistance, FDA Regulation 177.2600.
- What is the role of plasticizers in rubber formulation?
- The role of plasticizers in rubber formulation is often overlooked, yet it stands as a cornerstone of material science that significantly enhances the usability and adaptability of rubber products.
- How do plasticizers affect the physical properties of rubber?
- The effects of plasticizers on the physical properties of rubber can be broken down into three vital aspects: flexibility, durability, and processing temperature. Flexibility plays a huge role in determining how rubber behaves under stress or movement.
- What types of plasticizers can be used in Nr?
- In Natural Rubber (NR), Polyisobutylene, paraffin oil, DBP, DOP, and vulcanized vegetable oil can be used as plasticizers. These plasticizers are added to increase softness, improve filler dispersion, and aid in elastomer breakdown. NR is compatible with a variety of oil plasticizers including paraffinic, naphthenic, and aromatic oil plasticizers.
