  • Is Eastman 425 a phthalate plasticizer?
  • Eastman 425 is a non-phthalate plasticizer for vinyl compounds and plastisols. It is compatible with PVC as well as PVC /VA copolymers. The performance of Eastman 425 plasticizer is equal or better than other higher-solvating plasticizers. 0.4 max. 25 max. Properties reported here are typical of average lots.
  • What is Eastman plastic?
  • The process breaks down the plastic into its component monomers, dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) and ethylene glycol (EG), which are purified and used to make new plastic. Eastman calls its technology “polyester renewal technology.” The company expects construction of the new plant to start in March 2021 and finish by the end of 2022.
  • Is Eastman 168Tm non-Phthalate plasticizer volatile?
  • Plasticizer volatility was determined by heating samples in aluminum weighing pans at 177°C (350°F) for 24 hours. Eastman 168TM non-phthalate plasticizer is more volatile than DIDP and less volatile than DOP, DINP, and 711P (see Figure 2). PVC plastisol formulations were prepared according to the formulas in Table 2.
  • Does Eastman 168Tm non-Phthalate plasticizer have a low lacquer Mar?
  • Work in Eastman laboratories has confirmed the very low-lacquer mar properties imparted to A fused vinyl formulation (Table 6) containing Eastman 168TM non-phthalate plasticizer exhibited much less lacquer marring than the same formulation containing ortho-phthalate plasticizers.
  • Is Eastman 168 a terephthalate?
  • Eastman 168TM non-phthalate plasticizer is a terephthalate, while DOP, DINP, DIDP, and 711P are all ortho-phthalates. For comparison, these two types of plasticizers are shown in Figure 1. Structural differences between terephthalates and ortho-phthalate plasticizers result in some unique properties of Eastman 168.
  • How are PVC plastisol formulations prepared?
  • PVC plastisol formulations were prepared according to the formulas in Table 2. 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).
