- Properties
- Just as all plasticizers from the extended EKFLEX line, this plasticizer requires no addition of epoxidized soybean oil as a heat stabilizer in its formulation because it displays superior stability compared to any other plasticizer as it is, thereby bringing about a significant simplification in the formulation process.
- Performance test results show that this plasticizer is more efficient than other phthalate plasticizers more commonly used in PVC formulations, suggesting it takes smaller quantities of it to deliver the same properties.

- Use
Even though it can be used in the most varied of applications and markets thanks to its low volatility and good setting properties, this plasticizer is more commonly used in PVC compounds, chloroethylene polymers, and all kinds of vinyl applications, including shoes, wires, cables, extruded floor tiles, etc.
- Markets & Applications
- Apparel & Footwear: Shoes, sandals, synthetic materials, laminates, coated fabrics and textile finishes.
- Building & Construction: Glues, hoses, tanks, vinyl or wood flooring systems, wires and cables.
