  • What are plasticizers used for?
  • Plasticizers are the major functional additives transforming the physical properties of polymers such as PVC, PU, acrylic, nitrile and rubbers to create a whole world of flexible and durable finished articles for high demanding applications. The world plasticizer consumption was around 7.82 million MT in 2017, up nearly 25% over 6 years .
  • Which plasticizers are the most important commercially?
  • This is why external plasticizers are the most important commercially. External plasticizers can be monomeric or polymeric. Examples for polymeric plasticizers are EVA, CPE, NBR and terpolymers or polyesters mainly based on adipic acid, diols and mono alcohols.
  • Which processing aids are suitable for use in plastics and rubber compounds?
  • These processing aids are suitable for use in plastics and rubber compounds. Plasticizers soften polymer compounds in order to improve processing, lower compound viscosity and increase the flexibility of polymer compounds.
  • What are processing aids & plasticizers?
  • Processing aids and plasticizers are chemical additives used in compounds to increase the plasticity, fluidity or lubrication of a material. These processing aids are suitable for use in plastics and rubber compounds.
  • Why do plasticizers soften polymer compounds?
  • Plasticizers soften polymer compounds in order to improve processing, lower compound viscosity and increase the flexibility of polymer compounds. Because there is a wide range of chemicals used as processing aids and plasticizers, the individual properties of each compounding material can differ greatly.
  • Which monomeric plasticizer is most effective?
  • Of the monomeric plasticizers tested, DB(3E)A and DADEG appear most effective. It should be noted these are the highest molecular weight of the monomeric esters tested. The low viscosity (and molecular weight) of polymeric A1100 appears to offer low-temperature flexibility and permanence suitable to acrylic elastomers.
