Diisodecyl Phthalate (DIDP) is an oily, viscous general-purpose PVC Plasticizer with a mild odor. DIDP has a high-molecular-weight phthalate with good permanence and high temperature performance. This makes it a plasticizer of choice in flexible PVC products that call for low fogging. DIDP is also offers good outdoor weathering making it useful in roofing membranes... Read more »
Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESO) is produced from one of the most readily available and lowest-cost vegetable oils in the world. ESO is produced through the oxidation of high iodine value unsaturated soybean oil with hydrogen peroxide and organic acids such as acetic acid or formic acid. ESO is primarily used as a co-plasticizer for flexible... Read more »
Dioctyl adipate (DOA) is most often used as a PVC plasticizer. It imparts good low temperature flexibility, good heat stability, weathering properties, and good electrical properties. It is also compatible with nitrocellulose, ethylcellulose, high-butyryl cellulose acetate butyrate, and many synthetic rubbers. DOA is also commonly used with primary plasticizers, like DOP, to create lubricant basetocks.... Read more »
Diisononyl Phthalate (DINP) is a preferred choice PVC plasticizer for large-volume general use applications by balancing cost savings with good processablity. DINP is highly compatible and can be used with many secondary plasticizers to maximize cost effectiveness. It is often used as a substitute for Dioctyl Phthalate (DOP) and shows lower volatility than DOP. DINP... Read more »
