  • 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 .
  • How much plasticizer is consumed in the world?
  • The world plasticizer consumption was around 7.82 million MT in 2017, up nearly 25% over 6 years . Ceresana forecasts that global demand for all plasticizers will increase to about 9.75 million MT in 2024 . Over 90% of the plasticizers are consumed in flexible PVC applications .
  • 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.
  • What makes a polymer a good plasticizer?
  • It is nowadays established that good plasticization implies secondary bonds, also known as intermolecular forces, with the polymer. The attraction between plasticizer molecules and the polymer must be as strong as the interactions between molecules in the single components to generate an efficient polymer-plasticizer interaction.
  • Which region consumes the most plasticizers in the world?
  • Over 90% of the plasticizers are consumed in flexible PVC applications . China is the single largest plasticizer market in the world, followed by other Asian region, Europe and North America. The figure below shows the global plasticizer consumption by region in 2017 . Global Plasticizer Consumption in 1000 MT by Region in 2017
  • What are the different types of external plasticizers?
  • 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. Examples for monomeric plasticizers include phthalates, adipates, benzoates, and citrates. They can be further divided into:
