BASTONE is pleased to announce its participation as an exhibitor at Plast Eurasia Istanbul 2025, one of the largest and most influential plastics industry exhibitions in Europe and the Middle East. The event will take place at the TÜYAP Fair…
When working with viscous, high-boiling plasticizers — DOP (Dioctyl Phthalate), DINP (Diisononyl Phthalate), DOTP (Dioctyl Terephthalate), or DEHCH — proper cleaning of the IBC container after unloading is essential. These plasticizers leave oily residues on container walls that water alone…
Dioctyl Adipate (Plasticizer DOA) is a highly efficient, low-temperature-resistant plasticizer widely used in flexible PVC, cables, synthetic leather, and film applications. 1. Introduction The chemical synthesis of DOA is an esterification reaction between adipic acid and 2-ethylhexanol (2-EH). The reaction…
DINP (Di-isononyl Phthalate) is an important phthalate-based plasticizer known for its low volatility, excellent migration resistance, and environmental safety profile compared to traditional plasticizers like DOP (Di-octyl Phthalate). The following describes a modern synthesis method uses a titanium-based catalyst system…
BASTONE Achieves Great Success at Plastex Uzbekistan 2025（23-25 September, 2025） BASTONE proudly participated in Plastex Uzbekistan 2025, the leading exhibition for the plastics and chemical industries in Central Asia. During the event, BASTONE presented its high-quality plasticizer series — DOP…
Dioctyl Terephthalate (DOTP) is an environmentally friendly plasticizer usded in PVC. One of the main industrial methods to synthesize DOTP is the direct esterification method, also known as the TPA method, which uses terephthalic acid (TPA) and 2-ethylhexanol as raw…
DOP, a di-ester of phthalic anhydride and 2-ethylhexanol, is one of the most cost-effective plasticizers with strong plasticizing performance. Therefore, DOP (Dioctyl Phthalate) is a most used plasticizer“. BASTONE is the leading DOP manufacturer and supplier in China, with years…
Effect of plasticizer on the volume resistivity of PVC cable Keywords: PVC; plasticizer(DOTP, DOP, DIDP, DIOP, DINP, TOTM); cable; volume resistivity This study compares six plasticizers — including DOTP for PVC cable — at loadings from 26 to 56 phr…
Getting crystal-clear PVC sheets isn’t magic. It’s chemistry you can control. I’ve seen too many production engineers struggle with yellowing batches, hazy sheets, and those frustrating fish eyes that ruin an entire run. The worst part? They’re usually just one…
·Introduction to PVC Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is one of the five main general-purpose plastics and ranks third in global production among thermoplastics, following polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP). While PVC has an amorphous structure, lacks a fixed melting point and…
Brief introduction TXIB plasticizer is recognized as an advanced primary plasticizing agent for PVC plastisol systems. This high-performance formulation demonstrates exceptional compatibility with polyvinyl chloride resins and polyurethane-based materials, while maintaining effective interaction with conventional primary and secondary plasticizers. The…
DOP lowers the glass transition temperature of PVC, and with it hardness, tensile strength, modulus and melt viscosity, while elongation at break, impact resistance and low-temperature flexibility rise as the loading goes up. Its molecules sit between the PVC chains…
