  • Where are plasticizers used?
  • Explore the main application areas where plasticizers are largely utilized. Over 90% of the plasticizers used in thermoplastic polymers are used in PVC. The plasticized polymer market and the plasticized PVC market are largely one and the same although some plasticizer is also used in acrylic polymers, polyurethanes, polystyrene even polyolefins.
  • Why are plasticizers important?
  • Well-chosen plasticizers can also improve resistance to UV exposure and chemical attack. This contributes to the long-term stability of the polymer. In specific applications, plasticizers can influence the dielectric properties of polymers. This makes them suitable for use in electrical insulating materials.
  • Which plasticizers are used in PVC?
  • Over 90% of the plasticizers used in thermoplastic polymers are used in PVC. The plasticized polymer market and the plasticized PVC market are largely one and the same although some plasticizer is also used in acrylic polymers, polyurethanes, polystyrene even polyolefins. Some of the major end uses are discussed below.
  • Are plasticizers compatible with polymers?
  • They are highly compatible with polymers and can be added in large quantities. For example: up to 50% of vinyl gloves are made up of plasticizers, which make the PVC flexible and soft enough to wear. A secondary plasticizer is one that typically cannot be used as the sole plasticizer in a plasticized polymer.
  • What are natural product type plasticizers?
  • Vegetable oil derivatives are the most widely used natural product type plasticizers. Products consisting of triglyceride esters of unsaturated fatty acids (e.g., soybean oil, linseed oil) in which the double bonds in the fatty acid residues have typically been epoxidized have been commercial products for decades.
  • How to make a plastic product more flexible by adding plasticizers?
  • The process of making the final plastic product more flexible by adding plasticizers is called plasticization. By adding the right type and amount of plasticizer, you can tweak the polymer properties to get exactly what you need.
