  • What are alternative plasticizers for coatings?
  • Some alternative plasticizers as proposed for coatings are ATBC, SAIB, DOA and EPO. Although main properties of phthalate-based plasticizers can be met, the other alternative products tend to be more sensitive to migration as compared to DOP or DIOP.
  • Which polymers can be plasticized?
  • Almost all types of polymers can be plasticized. However, the plasticizer must be compatible with the base polymer in a formulation to function efficiently. Compatibility is the first and most important criterion for selecting a plasticizer. 1. Base Polymer Almost all types of polymers can be plasticized.
  • What types of plasticizers are used in adhesives & sealants?
  • Oils (like paraffinic, naphthenic, and aromatic) are used mainly as plasticizers in non-polar adhesives. These are generally used in the hot-melt adhesives and sealants. Base polymers include the mid-blocks of styrene-butadiene copolymers and polyolefin-based adhesives. Polymeric plasticizers are used frequently in adhesives and sealants.
  • What is a plasticizer chemistry?
  • Plasticizers are the most used additives in the plastics industry. They are generally available as non-volatile, colorless liquids. They improve the properties of the polymer. With several plasticizer chemistries available in the market choosing the right one can be daunting. In this guide, you will read more about:
  • What are the different types of plasticizers used for polymer modification?
  • Several chemical families of plasticizers are used for polymer modification. Among them, the most common are: Phthalate Esters – Produced by esterification of phthalic anhydride or phthalic acid. Obtained by the oxidation of orthoxylene or naphthalene. Most commonly used phthalate plasticizers include: DEHP: Low molecular weight ortho-phthalate.
  • 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.
