Discover the DOA for PVC Products

DOA plasticizer (Dioctyl Adipate) is a type of plasticizer commonly used in the plastics industry. It belongs to the class of adipate esters, which are known for their excellent compatibility and performance in a wide range of polymers.

DOA plasticizer is a colorless to slightly yellowish viscous liquid that is compatible with a variety of polymers, including polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinyl acetate, polyurethanes, and rubbers. It is widely used to improve the flexibility, processability, and durability of these polymers.

The main function of DOA plasticizer is to reduce the intermolecular forces within the polymer matrix, allowing the material to flow and shape more easily during processing. It works by penetrating into the polymer chains and disrupting the intermolecular interactions, which in turn reduces the glass transition temperature and increases the flexibility of the plastic.

DOA plasticizer is also known for its good low-temperature flexibility, which means it can maintain flexibility even at colder temperatures. This property makes it suitable for use in applications that require durability and flexibility across a wide range of temperatures.

In addition to its use in plastics, DOA plasticizer is also employed in adhesives, sealants, and coatings to improve their flexibility and adhesion properties.
