Plasticizers for PVC

Plasticizers for PVC | Advanced Phthalate-Free Solutions

The rigorous selection of high-performance plasticizers for PVC is a critical factor to ensure the flexibility, durability, rheological behavior, and mechanical properties required in the most complex industrial applications. Responding to the strictest regulatory and environmental standards of modern industry, ADPLAST proudly acts as the authorized agent and distributor of LEBA, commercializing a world-class range entirely free of phthalates (phthalate-free). This strategic partnership ensures full compliance with demanding regulations such as REACH, RoHS, food contact directives (FDA and EU 10/2011), and toy safety standards (EN 71-3).

With a consolidated annual production capacity of 15,000 tonnes and rigorous quality control at all stages—from raw material to shipment—LEBA develops advanced technologies in terephthalates, adipates, trimellitates, and citrates. As an agent and distributor committed to providing exceptional technical support by integrating these plasticizers for PVC into your lines, ADPLAST delivers tailored solutions to optimize extrusion, calendering, and injection molding processes, meeting specific needs for thermal resistance, low volatility, and long-term permanence in flexible polymers.

Operational Note: Through our flexible logistics network, we ensure global and local supply of these plasticizers for PVC in various formats adapted to industrial needs, including road tankers, ISO containers, drums, and IBCs.

Complete Product Portfolio

As an official agent and distributor, ADPLAST commercializes the complete portfolio of plasticizers for PVC and elastomeric polymers from LEBA, structured to meet the highest standards of technical excellence:

  • DOTP (Di-2-Ethylhexyl Terephthalate): A general-purpose plasticizers for PVC highly compatible with polymers, providing excellent processing characteristics and global industrial reliability.

  • DOA (Di-2-Ethylhexyl Adipate): A phthalate-free plasticizers for PVC ideal for rubber, widely recognized for its exceptional low-temperature properties and food contact approval.

  • TOTM / TOTM STB (Tri-2-Ethylhexyl Trimellitate): One of the primary plasticizers for PVC designed for applications requiring extreme high-temperature resistance and extremely low volatility (stabilizable upon request percentage).

  • TBC (Tributyl Citrate): A highly compatible plasticizers for PVC offering exceptional processing characteristics, also acting effectively as a viscosity reducer in resins and varnishes.

  • TRIMELL 810TM (Tri 8-10 Alcohol Trimellitate): A benchmark solution among plasticizers for PVC for high-temperature cables (automotive and TTR applications) and sanitary products, standing out for its low evaporation and migration rates.

  • Polymeric Plasticizers (Poly Adipate): An advanced series of plasticizers for PVC based on adipate chemistry targeted at long-life applications requiring maximum permanence, low volatility, and high resistance to oil and solvent extraction.

Industrial Applications by Sector

The superior versatility of the plasticizers for PVC supplied by ADPLAST on behalf of LEBA enables their optimized use across multiple subsectors of industrial activity:

  • Wires and Electric Cables: Advanced formulations using these plasticizers for PVC based on DOTP and trimellitates for insulation and jacketing with excellent thermal and electrical behavior.

  • Vinyl Flooring and Carpets: Terephthalate solutions ensuring long-lasting flexibility, easy cleaning, and high resistance to mechanical wear.

  • Automotive Sector: Synthetic leather for interiors, technical cables, and molded components under the requirement of high-temperature resistance additives (TOTM and Trimell 810).
