Eastman Plasticizers for Polyurethanes
And Eastman plasticizers are making polyurethane more versatile than ever before. Our plasticizers help regulate the rheological, thermal, and mechanical properties in polyurethane, making it more adaptable, more pliable, and more extrudable in a variety of applications.
Benzoflex Benzoate Ester Plasticizers, Eastman - ChemPoint
Benzoflex benzoate ester low-water stable plasticizers are used primarily to reduce the durometer of urethane systems. They have an excellent degree of compatibility in cast polyurethane systems which allows use at high levels to achieve durometer readings as low as 20-25 Shore A hardness.
Selecting Plasticizers for Adhesives and Sealants
Plasticizers that are used in adhesive and sealant formulations are generally chosen on the basis of the following criteria: Compatibility with a given polymer or set of component ingredients. Compounding characteristics. Effect of plasticizer on the rheological properties of the polymer.
Benzoflex 9-88 Plasticizer - Eastman: Technical Datasheet
Benzoflex 9-88 plasticizer is a high solvating plasticizer by Eastman. Designed for resilient flooring, automotive and artificial leather cloth. Benzoflex 9-88 plasticizer is suitable for polyurethane and a wide variety of polymer systems.
- Which Eastman plasticizer is best for polyurethane?
- Eastman plasticizers Benzoflex™ 9-88 SG and Benzoflex™ 352 excel in improving performance in polyurethane and other polymer systems as they interact with the polymer matrix. Benzoflex™ 352 is a cyclohexanedimethanol (CHDM) dibenzoate plasticizer commonly used in a variety of hot-melt adhesive applications, based on a variety of polymer bases.
- What is Eastman benzoflex 9-88 SG?
- Eastman Benzoflex™ 9-88 SG is a non-phthalate plasticizer for use with cast urethanes. Special grade (SG) has a maximum hydroxyl number specification designed for use in polyurethane prepolymers. It offers excellent inert filler acceptance, generally provides wear characteristics, and lowers formulation costs for cast polyurethanes.
- Why does polyurethane need a plasticizer additive?
- Due to their polymer chemistry composition, polyurethanes often require a plasticizer additive to help the maker reach the desired end product. Lowering the intermolecular tensions between polymer chains can increase the flexibility, toughness, and elongation of polyurethane.
- What is flexible polyurethane used for?
- Flexible polyurethanes can be used in sealant, automotive, 3D printing, aerospace, and other applications. Due to their polymer chemistry composition, polyurethanes often require a plasticizer additive to help the maker reach the desired end product.
