Professional R&D and excellent quality plasticizer chemicals

Benzoflex181 is a water white alkyl benzoate ester with low odor, low viscosity and excellent compatibility with PVC. Benzoflex181’s principal use is as a low viscosity plasticizer for plastisol applications. Benzoflex 181 may also be used in other applications requiring a low viscosity, high solvating plasticizer.

Eastman VersaBond is an efficient and easy replacement for phthalate-based plasticizers in polysulfide sealants for insulated glass. When compared with both phthalate and benzoate plasticizers, VersaBond has comparable or better performance for Shore A hardness, viscosity, and tensile strength.

Eastman VersaBond Plasticizer is a phthalate-free blend of esters (100% concentration) by Eastman. Exhibits better shore hardness, viscosity, tensile strength and water uptake as compared to traditional phthalate plasticizers and other non-phthalate solutions such as dibenzoate plasticizers.

Eastman has been a reliable supplier of benzoate ester plasticizers to the IG market for more than 10 years, with trusted non phthalate options for polysulfide sealants. Building on this history and application knowledge, Eastman VersaBond plasticizer is an efficient and easy replacement for phthalate-based plasticizers that are coming under

Eastman claims to have the broadest range of non-phthalate plasticizers in the global industry.
