PARAPLEX® G-62

Common Name: EPOXIDIZED SOYBEAN OIL
Product Code: 3755
Brand: Paraplex®

PARAPLEX G-62 is a high molecular weight soybean oil epoxide. In vinyl compounds and polychloroprene, it combines good permanence properties, stabilizing effectiveness and retention of compatibility on aging. PARAPLEX G-62 is the most compatible of the high molecular weight Paraplex oil epoxides. The stability imparted to PVC compounds by PARAPLEX G-62 is particularly impressive. In heat stability, the effectiveness of PARAPLEX G-62 is equivalent to that of PARAPLEX G-60. In both natural and accelerated light exposure tests, the performance of PARAPLEX G-62 is outstanding and superior to that of PARAPLEX G-60.

PARAPLEX G-62 is useful in a wide variety of plasticized PVC applications where its plasticizing performance and stabilizing action meet demanding requirements. In rigid and semi-rigid vinyl compounds, PARAPLEX G-62 is a valuable auxiliary stabilizer at low concentrations, providing stabilization and allowing a reduction of stabilizer costs.
