Flexidone™ 100

Flexidone™ 100 by Ashland is a plasticizer. It excels as an additive, particularly in highly filled applications where even modest addition rates deliver significant gains in quality, performance and processing efficiencies. It dissolves PVC at low temperatures quickly and completely. Flexidone™ 100 reduces dry blend times significantly and facilitates fast gelling. It decreases gelling temperature in plastisol production without compromising viscosity. It provides high flexibility at extremely low temperatures (up to -70°C). It exhibits very low volatility and low plasticizer loss at high temperatures. This product enhances clarity & transparency and enables high filler load. It is used in vinyl flooring, carpet backing, roofing membrane, coated textiles, cable sheathing, refrigerators as well as window gaskets, hoses, pond liners, tarpaulins, sheets, bath mats and shower curtains. Also, used in artificial leather, shoe soles and automotive underbody coatings.
