PEG di-2-ethylhexanoate, a high molecular weight liquid plasticizer, having wide compatibility with a variety of polymers. Its low volatility and heat resistance makes it especially useful in engineering plastics, such as polyester and polyamide resins.
General Properties
Uniplex™ 809 is characterized by:
- high molecular weight and its consequent low volatility
- heat resistance making it especially useful in engineering plastics
- good compatibility with a large number of polymers having a certain polarity such as polyesters, polyamides, polyacrylates, polyvinyl acetate and rubbers
Applications
Uniplex™ 809 is a high molecular weight liquid plasticizer developed for use in engineering plastics, such as polyester, polyacrylate and polyamide resins.
Typical application PET: Used at levels of 4 – 10 % on the weight of the PET resin, Uniplex™ 809 greatly reduces molding respectively processing times.
Uniplex™ 809 offers the advantages of:
- lowering processing cost
- enhancing impact resistance
- low vaporization
- improving mold releases
- easily added to the PET resin in single or double screw extruders
