Uniplex DOS is a low-temperature and light-resistant plasticizer for PVC, PS, cellulosics and rubber. In PVC Uniplex DOS exhibits an advantageous blend of properties such as an excellent low temperature flexibility combined with a low volatility. Chemical composition: Di-(2-Ethylhexyl) Sebacate CAS reg. no.: 122-62-3 General Uniplex DOS has - 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 lower volatility compared to the corresponding adipate.
Uniplex DOS imparts- a very good low-temperature resistance to suitably plasticized compounds; this effect is clearly noticeable even when Uniplex DOS is used in combination with other plasticizers.
- very good light stability to PVC compound.
Applications: Uniplex DOS is used for a wide range of articles based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS), cellulosics (cellulose acetate), and rubber (chloroprene, nitrile, butadiene). It is particularly beneficial to use Uniplex DOS when very good low-temperature flexibility and light stability are required, together with a low volatility.Information provided by Lanxess. |
