Dibasic ester(DBE) by BOC Sciences acts as a plasticizer. It is suitable for styrene resins, PVC, nitrocellulose, and other plastics. It is also used in the construction of ion-selective polymeric membrane electrodes.
Diisooctyl Sebacate by BOC Sciences acts as a plasticizer for styrene resins, PVC, nitrocellulose and other plastics. It is stable, combustible and incompatible with oxidizing agents.<br>
<ul style="padding-left: 40px;"><li>It emits acrid and irritating fumes when heated to decomposition.</li>
<li>It can be also used as an aerosol material used to investigate the filtration efficiency of polyvinylidene/silicon oxide (PVDF/SiO<sub>2</sub>) based fibrous membranes.</li>
<li>It may be blended with PVC to form membranes that can be deposited on silver (Ag) based composites which can be used in the fabrication of ion-selective electrodes for chemical analysis.</li>
<li>Diisooctyl Sebacate may also be used in combination with PVC, chloride ionophore III, and tridodecylmethylammonium chloride for the development of chloride sensing films.</li></ul>
