Abstract:
Plasticizers are used primarily to soften PVC,
but other significant applications also require
their use. In this presentation, the basics of
plasticizer technology, the types of plasticizers
available, and plasticizer selection will be discussed.
The discussion will then address specific performance
examples: a plastisol sealant used in automotive
applications; polysulfide sealants used by the
insulating glass industry; and latex caulks. Types
of plasticizers used in these applications will
be discussed, as well as the effect of plasticizer
selection on product performance. This e-Live
presentation will in general address formulating
with plasticizers.
