Plasticisers
Plasticizers are vital chemical additives used to enhance the flexibility, durability, and workability of polymers. They are widely employed in industries such as automotive, construction, and consumer goods to improve the processing and mechanical properties of plastic materials. By incorporating plasticizers into the polymer matrix, manufacturers achieve increased flexibility, reduced brittleness, and enhanced resistance to impact and abrasion. The industry is shifting towards sustainable alternatives like bio-based and eco-friendly plasticizers to promote environmentally friendly manufacturing practices while producing versatile, high-performance plastic materials.
