  • What are non phthalate plasticizers?
  • DIC is working to develop plasticizers (non-phthalate) that accommodate usage restrictions for Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals and food utensils, containers and packaging, and toys. Examples of major applications and representative product numbers of non-phthalate plasticizers are shown below.
  • What is Eastman 168 non Phthalate plasticizer?
  • It offers good performance properties, excellent low temperature flexibility, resistance to extraction by soapy water, and excellent non-migration properties. In plastisols, Eastman 168 non-phthalate plasticizer results in low initial viscosity and excellent keeping viscosity.
  • Is pevalen a good alternative to phthalates?
  • Martin Hansson, business manager for plasticizers at Perstorp, notes that the firm launched the Pevalen range in 2014 as a premium performance alternative to phthalates. Even then, he said Perstorp had plans to continue developing the product and add grades with better environmental credentials.
  • What is the plasticizer used in Plastisol formulations?
  • The plasticizer used in each formulation is the amount required to give equal modulus and Shore A hardness. The plastisol formulations in Table 2 were prepared on a low-shear mixer and deaerated. The samples were aged at 23°C (73°F). Brookfield (low-shear) and Severs (high-shear) viscosities were measured.
  • Which plasticizer is least volatile during fusion?
  • Plastisol volatility during fusion was determined by measuring the percent weight loss at various fusion temperatures (Figure 5). Eastman 168TM non-phthalate plasticizer, DINP, and 711P are all less volatile than DOP, and as expected, DIDP is the least volatile. Fusion properties were determined on the temperature gradient bar (Figure 6).
  • Are plasticizers safe?
  • Awareness is increasing regarding the environment and the safety of plasticizers and a response is being demanded in raw materials as well. DIC is working to develop plasticizers (non-phthalate) that accommodate usage restrictions for Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals and food utensils, containers and packaging, and toys.
