Plasticizers are easy-to-process additives that soften plastic, mostly polyvinyl chloride (PVC). PVC with added plasticizers is known as flexible PVC. It is used for floorings, wallpapers, building materials, wire and cable coatings and more. Its wide-range applications support our daily lives.

Plasticizers - Chemical Economics Handbook (CEH) | S&P Global
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).
- What are Taoka plasticizers?
- TAOKA offers a wide range of products with the main focus on such plasticizers. A plasticizer refers to a substance which is added to a certain material to add flexibility and easy processing. Plasticizers are mostly used to increase the elasticity of the plastic.
- What are antistatic plasticizers?
- Antistatic plasticizers provide polymers such as PVC with antistatic properties. SANSO CIZER C-1000 and C-1100 are antistatic plasticizers developed for flexible PVC, urethane and nitrile rubber. They are perfect for products requiring an antistatic function such as flooring, partition curtains and footwear.
- Which plasticizers are flame resistant?
- Flame-retardant plasticizers provide fire resistance to polymers such as PVC. A representative example is organophosphate. SANSO CIZER TCP (Tricresyl phosphate) is an organophosphate with excellent flame and weather resistance as well as electric insulation properties.
- What are plasticizers & stabilizers?
- Plasticizers are one of the key materials which improve the characteristics of the final products such as flexibility, which would not be realized without it, to PVC and rubbers. PVC stabilizers are one of the essential materials for PVC to improve processability and characteristics of PVC products.
- What are Adeka plasticizers?
- ADEKA's plasticizers show excellent performance such as low migration to other polymers and heat resistance and so on. We have a variety of plasticizers that surely meet customer's needs. Epoxy plasticizers act as stabilizer and plasticizer for PVC.
- What are plasticizers used for?
- Plasticizers are mostly used to increase the elasticity of the plastic. It consists of ester moiety, which are synthesized from carboxylic acid and alcohol units. TAOKA products, contribute to create a comfortable life by using well established long historical esterification technology background.
