Plasticizers
Plasticizers from BASF BASF is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of plasticizers. BASF offers a broad product portfolio of plasticizers for standard as well as special applications, such as toys and medical devices. Plasticizers give flexibility to PVC products such as cables or films.
America
There has been a need for plasticizers ever since PVC (polyvinyl chloride) was patented in 1913. In its unmodified state, PVC is rigid and brittle. Plasticizers are used to make the material soft and flexible. BASF has been a leader in the market for plasticizers and raw materials throughout the history of flexible PVC.
Eastman increases Plasticizers prices on April 01, 2025
Eastman is increasing prices on Eastman 168 non-phthalate plasticizer, Eastman DOP, DOA, DOM, TOTM, 425, VersaMax Plus Plasticizers on Apr 1, 2025.
Hexamoll DINCH
Hexamoll DINCH is a colorless, clear and practically anhydrous liquid with a hardly noticeable odor. It is soluble in the usual organic solvents and is miscible and compatible with all of the monomeric plasticizers commonly used in PVC. Hexamoll DINCH is almost insoluble in water. Hexamoll DINCH is the non-phthalate plasticizer

- What is the most common plasticizer?
- DEHT, a structural isomer to DEHP, was the most common plasticizer and was detected in four of the six backpacks with mass content ranging from 5.38±1.98% to 25.5±3.54% and in six out of the seven plastic toys with mass content ranging from 8.17±1.85% to 21.2±1.11%.
- Can plasticizers be used to make plastic products?
- The use of plasticizers for plastic products manufacture is not a new practice. Its application to modify polymer characteristics began in the 1800s. In these early days, manufacturers of celluloid or celluloid lacquers used natural camphor and castor oil for plasticization purposes, but these were unsatisfactory for many end uses.
- What are natural based plasticizers?
- Nowadays, there is increasing interest in the use of natural-based plasticizers that are characterized by low toxicity and low migration. This group includes epoxidized triglyceride vegetable oils from soybean oil, linseed oil, castor-oil, sunflower oil, and fatty acid esters (FAEs) .
- What is a plasticizer?
- A plasticizer is a type of chemical compound that is added to plastics and rubber to make it softer and more flexible, to increase its plasticity, to decrease its viscosity, or to decrease friction during its handling in manufacture.
- Do you need a reliable plasticizer manufacturer?
- From homes and cars to the office and children's toys, plasticizers are in countless products. They enhance product flexibility and performance, providing added value. However, when it comes to your application, you need more than just any plasticizer. You need a reliable plasticizer manufacturer.
- How many plasticisers are there?
- Today there are around 50 plasticisers in commercial use. Globally, approximately six million tonnes of plasticisers are consumed every year, with the major use being flexible PVC applications. Plasticisers transform the physical properties of PVC as well as other polymers, creating a wide range of flexible and durable applications.
