Eastman Triacetin non-phthalate plasticizer for waterborne
Triacetin is compatible with many other plasticizers, such as Benzoflex 50 plasticizer, Eastman DBT plasticizer, and Eastman TXIB formulation additive, and can be blended to yield the desired final properties. Eastman Triacetin can be used alone or in combination with the other plasticizers shown to optimize the T g suppression
Effectiveness of triacetin and triethyl citrate as
It was found that, at a fixed amount of plasticizer (10%), TRI caused reduction of glass transition temperature (Tg) and melt temperature (Tm) in both PVA with the largest reduction in 88% hydrolysed PVA while TEC showed insignificant changes of Tg and slight reduction of Tm suggesting higher effectiveness of plasticization in 88% hydrolysed PVA
Eastman Triacetin - plasticizer for cellulosic resins
Eastman Triacetin is useful for imparting plasticity and flow to laminating resins, particularly at low temperatures, and is also used as a plasticizer for vinylidene polymers and copolymers. It serves as an ingredient in inks for printing on plastics, and as a plasticizer in nail polish.
Plasticization effect of triacetin on structure and
For plasticized film with 5 wt% triacetin, several ill-defined peaks as well as the broad peak at 2 θ = 5.93° were observed. With further increasing triacetin content, the amorphous broad hump was replaced by several well-defined diffraction peaks, which implied that new scattered crystallite formed in the film matrix.
Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
A primary plasticizer enhances elongation, softness and flexibility of polymer. They are highly compatible with polymers and can be added in large quantities. For example: up to 50% of vinyl gloves are made up of plasticizers, which make the PVC flexible and soft enough to wear.
