The Chemical supplier of industrial and speciality applications
Product sell: DBP, DINP, DIDP, DOA, TOTM and LID
Function: Plasticizer
Description: A material of lower molecular weight added to a polymer to separate the molecular chains.
Plasticizers are additives that increase the plasticity or fluidity of the material to which they are added, these include plastics, cement, concrete, wallboard and clay bodies. Although the same compounds are often used for both plastics and concretes, the desired effect is slightly different.
Plasticizers for concrete soften the mix before it hardens, increasing its workability or reducing water, and are usually not intended to affect the properties of the final product after it hardens. Plasticizers for wallboard increases fluidity of the mix, allowing lower use of water and thus reducing energy to dry the board. The plasticizers for plastics soften the final product increasing its flexibility.
1. Bis(n-butyl)phthalate (DnBP, DBP), used for cellulose plastics, food wraps, adhesives, perfumes and also in cosmetics - about a third of nail polishes, glosses, enamels and hardeners contain it, together with some shampoos, sunscreens, skin emollients, and insect repellents
2. Diisononyl phthalate (DINP), found in garden hoses, shoes, toys, and building materials.
3. Diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP), used for insulation of wires and cables, car undercoating, shoes, carpets, pool liners.
4. Dioctyl adipate (DOA), Adipate-based plasticizers are used for low-temperature or resistance to ultraviolet light.
5. TOTM, tri n-octyl trimellitate. Trimellitates are used in automobile interiors and other applications where resistance to high temperature is required.
6. LID (speciality plasticizer) | | |
