Plasticizers - Highly Efficient & Versatile
Polymer additives that improve processing, while enhancing mechanical performance and visual appeal for multiple polymer systems.
Santicizer® Fast Fusing Plasticizers
Santicizer® Plasticizers offer all the benefits of high solvating plasticizers including compatibility in multiple polymer systems including PVC, Polysulfide, Polyurethane and Silane Modified Polymers. Because of their high efficiency, less energy is required to fuse PVC formulations. These materials are well suited for plastisol applications, but can easily be used in almost any polymer system that requires additional flexibility and softness. Valtris also offers Santicizer® Platinum, non-phthalate options that have the same performance characteristics of premium phthalate products. These highly efficient plasticizers offer excellent compatibility in many polymer systems, high plasticizing efficiency and fast-fusing capability all in a non-phthalate product.
Specifications & Attributes
- Compatibility and permanence in many polymer systems allowing longer term product performance
- Fast fusing & compounding properties in PVC applications for reduction in energy usage and increase in line speed
- High plasticizing efficiency, for lower required plasticizer loadings
- Noise and vibration dampening
- Excellent paintability, particularly for wet on wet automotive applications
- Good chemical, water and biological resistance
Santicizer® Platinum G-2000 Bio-Based Plasticizer
Santicizer® Platinum G-2000 is an efficient bio-based primary plasticizer that offers excellent heat stability, enhanced process ability, and lower volatility than your traditional General-Purpose Plasticizers. Santicizer® Platinum G-2000 has the USDA Bio-Preferred Certification, with 85% renewable carbon content. It can be used in a variety of PVC processing techniques such as extrusion, calendaring, injection molding, rotational molding, and spread coating.
Specifications & Attributes
- Bio-based - 85% renewable carbon content
- Easy to formulate to substitute for common general-purpose plasticizers
- Non-phthalate
- Highly efficient, allowing lower plasticizer use
- Provides additional processing heat stability
Santicizer® Phosphate Ester Flame Retardant Plasticizers
Santicizer® Phosphate Esters flame retardant plasticizers are non-halogenated and perform with the same plasticizing capabilities of the other Santicizer® plasticizers. Formulating these products into a polymer will retard flame propagation and suppress smoke generation.
Specifications & Attributes
- FDA-approved grades
- Strong fire retardancy and smoke suppression
- Versatility and compatibility with many polymer systems
- Fast-fusing characteristics for easy process
- High-plasticizing efficiency
- Clear liquid
CEREPLAS™ Specialty Esters
CEREPLAS™ specialty esters are used predominately to modify PVC resin systems for a wide variety of consumer and industrial products. These synthetic esters are also components of functional fluids such as, lubricants, hydraulic, and metal working fluids.
Specifications & Attributes
- Non-ortho phthalate chemistry
- High-plasticizing efficiency, broad range of processing flexibility
- Grades with FDA and EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) approval
- Low volatility for superior fogging performance
- High purity, low odor, low color
- Versatility across the product lines for range of low to high temperature performance
