Adimoll® DO is a low-temperature-resistant plasticizer suitable for a large number of polymers, inclusive polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyurethane (PU), rubbers, nitro- and ethyl cellulose, and polyvinyl acetate (PVAC). Chemical composition: Di-2-ethylhexyl adipate (DEHA, DOA) CAS reg. no.: 103-23-1 General Adimoll® DO has - a very good plasticizing effect when used with PVC, PU, PVAC, NBR and other polymers.
- a low viscosity, which, in combination with its weak ability to solvate PVC, has a positive effect on the initial viscosity and storage stability of plastisols.
- a good compatibility with PVB resins and other plasticizers used in the manufacture of PVB film.
- a good compatibility with a large number of polymers.
Adimoll® DO is used when regulations and recommendations governing food contacting applications need to be met. Applications: Adimoll® DO imparts - very good low-temperature resistance to suitably plasticized compounds; this effect is clearly noticeable even when Adimoll® DO is used in combination with other plasticizers.
- very good light stability to PVC compounds.
It is particularly beneficial to use Adimoll® DO when very good low-temperature resistance and light stability are required, together with high elasticity. Adimoll® DO is used for a wide range of articles based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC), acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), chloroprene rubber (CR), ethylene-vinyl acetate rubber (EVM), polyurethane (PU), and ethylene-propylene copolymers (EPM). Adimoll® DO is also compatible with polyvinyl butyral (PVB), nitrocellulose and ethyl cellulose, polystyrene and natural rubber. It has a limited compatibility with cellulose acetate butyrate, cellulose propionate and polymethylmethacrylate.Information provided by Lanxess. |
