NEW BENZOATE PLASTICIZERS FOR POLYVINYL CHLORIDE: INTRODUCTION AND PERFORMANCE EXAMPLE

摘要

Two new unique benzoate ester plasticizers that will offer the vinyl formulator improved performance have been developed. One is an excellent solvator that will yield lower plastisol viscosities than existing plasticizers. The other will provide an excellent alternate with low volatility. The new products provide expanded performance utility over existing benzoates and phthalates on a global basis. Basic plastisol performance data and an example of use in a specific application, vinyl leathercloth, are presented. The data demonstrates that these blends are compatible, effective high solvating plasticizers and are performance alternates for plastisols and other polyvinyl chloride applications.
