Velsicol is a world-renowned manufacturer of dibenzoate plasticizers and first introduced them in the 1950’s throughout the globe. Velsicol played a key role, as a dibenzoate supplier, in the conversion of phthalate plasticizers to non-phthalate plasticizers.

Do dibenzoate Plasticizers remain in the polymer matrix?

Overall permanence characteristics which account for these dibenzoate plasticizers to remain within the polymer matrix are also quite desirable. Velsiflex plasticizers are low-to-medium-viscosity fluid esters compatible with a wide range of polymeric systems.

Is nk-5357 a phthalic plasticizer?

NK-5357 is a chemically stable, non-phthalic benzoate plasticizer. It has a high boiling point and has excellent compatibility with Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Polyvinyl Acetate (PVA), Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA), Ethyl Cellulose, nitro cellulose, nitrile rubber, chloroprene rubber and Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR).

What is the best phthalate-free plasticizer?

As there is an increasing demand for phthalate-free plasticizers, Benzoate plasticizers offer the best alternative by providing similar benefits in their applications.
