Hanwha Solutions' phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH offers answer to
Hanwha Solutions’ Chemical Division announced that it quadrupled annual production of phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH. Up to 6.5 tons of it will be produced every year at a petrochemical industrial complex in the southeastern port city of Ulsan, South Korea. Phthalate-free plasticizer using “hydrogenation”
Contamination and historical trends of legacy and emerging plasticizers
(NPPs) in industrial markets as alternative plasticizers. In this study, phthalates and NPPs from surface and samples taken from industrialized bays in Korea were measured to determine their distribution, contamination sources, historical records, and the ecological risks they posed.
Plasticizers - Chemical Economics Handbook (CEH) | S&P Global - IHS Markit
Flexible PVC (and thus plasticizers) is found in the following applications: construction (flooring, wall coverings), electrical (wire and cable jacketing), consumer goods (toys, footwear, etc.), packaging, transportation (inside and outside of vehicles), furnishings, and medical uses (tubing, blood bags).
Occurrence, distribution, and sources of phthalates and non-phthalate
Due to strong regulation of phthalates, non-phthalate plasticizers (NPPs) have been introduced to the industrial market. In this study, concentrations of 16 phthalates and five NPPs in sediment were measured to investigate the occurrence, potential source, and ecotoxicological implications of these contaminants.
Current Status of Plasticizer Research | SpringerLink
After several tens of years, the plasticizer industry in China has grown to a relatively large scale. Currently, China has the largest plasticizer production and consumption in Asia, with a capacity of 2.2 million tons, an actual volume of 1.3 million tons, and an apparent consumption of 1.7 million tons.
- What is plasticizer used for?
- Plasticizer is added to polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is hard and brittle at room temperature, to make it soft and pliable for molding and processing. OCI’s plasticizer is added to PVC resin to produce electric cable compounds, wallpaper, flooring material, PVC film, automotive sealants (sealers), and artificial leather.
- Where are plasticizers made?
- It is produced by the ester reaction between alcohol such as Octanol (2-EH), INA, etc., and acids such as PA, TPA, TMA, etc. Depending on the base material, different grades of plasticizers are produced. Korea, India, Southeast Asian countries, Russia, USA, etc
- Why is plasticizer added to plastic raw materials?
- Plasticizer is added to plastic raw materials to help fabricate various products by increasing their plasticity. Plasticizer is added to polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is hard and brittle at room temperature, to make it soft and pliable for molding and processing.
- What plasticizers does OCI make?
- Based on the price competitiveness of Phthalic Anhydride (PA), the base raw material for Plasticizers, OCI produces major Poly Vinyl Chloride phthalate-based Plasticizers (DINP, TINIM, and DINA). In 2016, an exclusive production line for DOTP was added, further expanding OCI’s plasticizer business. 1991
- Which countries manufacture poly vinyl chloride phthalate based plasticizers?
- Korea, India, Southeast Asian countries, Russia, USA, etc Based on the price competitiveness of Phthalic Anhydride (PA), the base raw material for Plasticizers, OCI produces major Poly Vinyl Chloride phthalate-based Plasticizers (DINP, TINIM, and DINA).
- What is OCI plasticizer used for?
