description Product Description
Used primarily as a plasticizer in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other polymers to improve flexibility, durability, and workability. Commonly found in cables, wires, flooring, films, and medical tubing due to its good electrical insulation properties and low volatility. Offers an alternative to phthalate plasticizers like DEHP, providing similar performance with improved environmental and health profiles. Also used in sealants, adhesives, and coatings where resistance to heat and UV degradation is required.
