  • What is a trimellitate plasticizer?
  • Trimellitate plasticizers are an alternative for phthalate plasticizers when high temperature applications and low volatility are important. Chemflexx TOTM exhibits low migration properties and extraction resistance properties that are required for dishwasher gaskets, medical tubing and photograph storage.
  • What is chemflexx TOTM plasticizer?
  • Chemflexx TOTM exhibits low migration properties and extraction resistance properties that are required for dishwasher gaskets, medical tubing and photograph storage. In appropriate situations, Chemflexx TOTM plasticizer can also be blended with other lower volatility plasticizers such as DUP and DOTP. of a material data sheet.
  • Can plasticizers be used as substitutes for ortho-phthalates?
  • Over the past 10 years methods have been developed for key alternative plasticizers, which is needed and important since some of the plasticizers may be used as substitutes for ortho-phthalates, particularly in sensitive applications.
  • Which plasticizers are used in food contact applications?
  • ATBC, DEHA, DINCH, DOTP, and ESBO are used in food contact applications, are well-studied, and demonstrate low toxicity. Seven other plasticizers, 2EHESBO, ASE, CMCHA, DBT, DEHCH, PETV, and TOTM, have recent but limited food contact clearances.
  • Can DBT be used as plasticizer?
  • FCN No 1952 lists the use of DBT as plasticizer at a level not to exceed 14 percent by weight of finished plasticized vinyl chloride polymer for repeated use applications for all food types, except alcoholic foods, at temperatures not to exceed 100 °C (FDA, 2021b).
  • Which plasticizers have food contact clearances?
  • Seven other plasticizers, 2EHESBO, ASE, COMGHA, DBT, DEHCH, PETV, and TOTM, have at least some recent but limited food contact clearances; assessments from CPSC, EFSA, and robust summaries in the REACH dossiers were reviewed for these products.
