Description

Cyclohexyl Isooctyl Phthalate is a specialized high-molecular-weight phthalate ester plasticizer. This compound is valued for its excellent compatibility with a wide range of polymers, providing enhanced flexibility, durability, and low-temperature performance to finished products. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the plastics, coatings, and specialty chemical industries seeking to improve the processing and end-use properties of their materials.

Application

• Primary plasticizer for PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and other vinyl polymers, imparting flexibility and elongation.
• Key component in the formulation of flexible vinyl products such as cables, hoses, and synthetic leather.
• Used in adhesive and sealant formulations to enhance workability and final film properties.
• Plasticizer for polymer coatings and inks, improving adhesion and resistance.
• Additive in caulks and putties to modify viscosity and prevent cracking.
• Processing aid in the manufacture of specialty rubber compounds and elastomers.

Quality Control

Our Cyclohexyl Isooctyl Phthalate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, color, and acidity, to ensure it meets precise specifications for industrial applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity and key physical-chemical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize moisture absorption and contamination.
