Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
Bio-based Plasticizers – They are based on epoxidized soybean oil (ESBO), epoxidized linseed oil (ELO), castor oil, palm oil, other vegetable oils, starches, sugars etc. Others – Includes Phosphates, Chlorinated Paraffins, Alkyl Sulfonic Acid Esters and more When added to polymer, these plasticizers provide several benefits as listed below.
Deep Dive into Plastic Monomers, Additives, and Processing
(1) These synthetic materials can be molded or shaped and are made of an organic polymer matrix and chemical additives. In their production and processing, a variety of chemical substances are used. (25) The basis of plastics, organic polymers, is made from repeating monomer units.

2.5 Polymeric Additives. Polymeric additives, when added to polymers, make it possible to form useful compounds (called plastics), useful materials, with characteristics suitable for the manufacturing process and the use for which the final product is intended. Additives for plastics are subdivided into adjuvants and fillers.
Plastic Additives
Fillers / Extenders. Fillers are important additives. They are usually inexpensive, inert, inorganic materials that simply add bulk to the plastics, i.e. they reduce raw material cost by lowering the resin consumption (extenders). However, there are other benefits of mineral fillers; for example, they can improve the moldability and stability

Teflon: Teflon is an additive commonly used for high wear applications or parts that face a lot of friction throughout their lifespan. It can help increase the lubricity of plastic and reduce friction when it makes contact with other components and ultimately improving durability. We've listed the most common additives at Boyd, but it's far
- What are plasticizers and polymer additives?
- Our lab is prepared to produce what you need. Plasticizers and polymer additives are widely used to improve the manufacture and performance of materials in desired end products. In some countries certain plasticizers, mainly phthalates, are banned, as these substances are suspected of causing a wide range of health issues.
