  • High Performance Ester Plasticizers
    High Performance Ester Plasticizers Abstract Traditional elastomer polymers, such as nitrile, polychloroprene, chlorinated polyethylene and chlorosulfonated polyethylene, have for years used moderate- to low- performance ester plasticizers. However, longevity requirements for rubber articles made from these elastomers have created a need for higher-performance ester plasticizers. With the increasing high-temperature demands required by automotive, other elastomers such as acrylic, high-saturated nitrile, epichlorohydrin and ethylene propylene diene monomer EPDM are replacing the more traditional elastomers. Plasticizers commonly used for the traditional and the high-temperature polymers are extractable, incompatible or too volatile. This paper provides information on plasticizers that are designed for traditional elastomers and high-performance polymers. The test data will include heat aging, extraction by hydrocarbons and low-temperature as molded after aging. The information provided indicates that the permanence of the plasticizer after these various agings is the key to the retention of physical properties. Introduction End uses for elastomer compounds are quite diverse, but they can be loosely categorized as being either general performance or higher performance applications. Each of these performance categories requires a different set of considerations in terms of compounding with ester plasticizers. An ester plasticizer, in its simplest concept, is a high-boiling organic solvent that when added to an elastomeric polymer reduces stiffness and permits easier processing.1 For general performance applications, compounders require moderate performance in several areas without particular emphasis on any one. Some general performance ester plasticizers used in the marketplace today are DOA, DIDA, DIDP, DOP, DINP and other phthalates and adipates made from straight-chain alcohols of 7–11 carbons in length.

  • Influence of Different Polymeric Matrices on the Properties of Pentaerythritol Tetranitrate
    Defence Science Journal, Vol. 71, No. 2, March 2021, pp. 177-184, DOI : 10.14429/dsj.71.16132 © 2021, DESIDOC Influence of Different Polymeric Matrices on the Properties of Pentaerythritol Tetranitrate Ahmed Elbeih*, Mahmoud Abdelhafiz, and Ahmed K. Hussein Military Technical College, Cairo, Egypt *E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Six different polymeric matrices were fabricated to reduce the sensitivity of PETN (Pentaerythritol tetranitrate). The polymeric matrices used were individually based on Acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) softened by plasticizer, styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) softened by oil, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) plasticised by dioctyl adipate (DOA), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), polyurethane matrix, and Fluorel binder. A computerised plastograph mixer was utilised for producing three polymer-bonded explosives (PETN-NBR, PETN-SBR, and PETN-PDMS) based on the non-aqueous method. A cast-cured method was used to prepare PBX based on polyurethane (PETN-HTPB), while the slurry technique was used to prepare beads of PETN coated by either fluorel binder (PETN-FL) or based on PMMA forming (PETN-PMMA). The heat of combustion and sensitivities were investigated. The velocity of detonation was measured, while the characteristics of the detonation wave were deduced theoretically by the EXPLO 5 (thermodynamic code). The ballistic mortar experiment was performed to determine the explosive strength. By comparing the results, it was found that PDMS has the highest influence on decreasing the impact sensitivity of PETN, while the cast cured PETN-HTPB has the lowest friction sensitivity. On the other side, PETN-FL has the highest detonation parameters with high impact sensitivity. Several relationships were verified and the matching between the measured results with the calculated ones was confirmed.

  • Surface Modification of Engineering Plastics Through Swelling In
    #2008 The Society of Polymer Science, Japan Surface Modification of Engineering Plastics through Swelling in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide By Toshimi TAKAJO,1;2 Atsushi TAKAHARA,1;Ã and Takefumi KICHIKAWA2 In order to improve the tribological characteristics of polymer materials, the authors tried to impregnate the surface of engineering plastics with the lubricating oil by using supercritical carbon dioxide. The oil impregnation ratio on crystalline polymer was influenced by both the glass transition temperature (Tg) and the degree of crystallinity. In case of using the polymer possessing lower Tg with large difference between the Tg and treatment temperature, the higher impregnation ratio was obtained, and the crystallite in crystalline polymer prevented the impregnation of lubricating oil. The results of polarized optical microscopic observations and FT-IR spectroscopy studies indicated that the lubricating oil was preferentially impregnated to the amorphous region in crystalline polymer, and the high-concentration layer of lubricating oil having the thickness of ca. 30 mm was formed at the vicinity of surface area. The result obtained in this study, which reports the preferential lubricating oil impregnation to the surface of crystalline polymer under supercritical carbon dioxide, suggests that the tribological characteristics of crystalline polymer would be improved by applying this oil impregnation method without sacrificing the bulk mechanical strength. KEY WORDS: Supercritical Carbon Dioxide / Oil Impregnation / Engineering Plastic / Tribology / Crystallinity / Many studies carried out by utilizing supercritical fluid have lubricating oil at high temperature over long periods of time to been recently reported, and the representative examples of the impregnate the product with lubricating oil. According to such studies are as follows: researches for the polymerization the method, however, it is unavoidable that the deterioration of reaction in supercritical fluid, the supercritical extraction- polymer is accelerated.

  • Review of Exposure and Toxicity Data for Phthalate Substitutes
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In August 2008, the U.S. Congress passed the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA) placing restrictions on the use of six dialkyl ortho-phthalates (o- DAPs) in children’s toys or child care articles. The CPSIA also directs the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to convene a Chronic Hazard Advisory Panel to investigate the potential health effects of phthalates and phthalate substitutes. The purpose of this report is to identify o-DAP substitutes that are currently being used in children’s articles, or are probable future candidates, and to summarize the potential human health risks associated with using these chemicals in this manner. Chemicals were identified as the most likely alternatives to o-DAPs in children’s articles based on a variety of factors which included their compatibility with polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The five chemicals identified by this report as the most likely o-DAP alternatives are acetyl tri-n-butyl citrate (ATBC), di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate (DEHA), 1,2- cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, dinonyl ester (DINCH), trioctyltrimellitate (TOTM),and di(2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate (DEHT or DOTP). All, except TOTM, have been cited as already being used in children’s articles. However, TOTM is compatible with PVC – the most popular resin for children’s soft plastic toys and other articles – and thus a likely o- DAP alternative. The review of the potential risks of using these chemicals in children’s articles focused on the amount and quality of data available for the chemical. Key parameters included physical-chemical properties, migration rates, and all available exposure, hazard, and dose-response information.

Monopropylene glycol, octanol and diethylene glycol were used as polyols for esterification reaction. Catalyst Fascat® 4100, was also added. Viscosity, acidity and hydroxyl index, moisture content, molar mass, chemical composition (by FTIR) and color were determined to characterize the natural plasticizer synthesized. The results were compared with a commercial plasticizer (DOA: di-octyl adipate) derived from petrochemical source and synthesized in laboratory. According to the results, except from color, the natural plasticizer presented similar properties of commercially available plasticizers, such as DOA. Mechanical tests indicated that the addition of the natural plasticizer to PVC films resulted in a significant increase on its elongation at break (371.2%) compared to pure PVC film, indicating a possible application for this plasticizer. Keywords: esterification, fatty acid of rice, natural plasticizer 1.

  • Plasticizers Methodology the Global Plasticizers Market Size Is Around
    Copyright © 2015 Reed Business Information Ltd. ICIS is a part of the Reed Elsevier plc group Plasticizers Methodology The global plasticizers market size is around 6m tonnes/year, of which Asia is the largest consumer, accounting for approximately 3.5m tonnes/year, followed by Europe, with around 1m tonnes/year and the US at about 800,000 tonnes/year. Plasticizers are additives that increase the plasticity or fluidity of the material to which they are added. Some 96% of plasticizers are consumed in flexible PVC applications, including cables, PVC films, roofing, flooring and wall covering. In the US, 80-90% of plasticizers are consumed in PVC applications. Plasticizers are grouped into a number of categories such as orthophthalates – commonly referred to as phthalates – aliphatics (mainly adipates), trimellitates, epoxy, polymerics and phosphates. They can be substituted by one another, depending on cost, performance and legislation. Ortho-phthalate plasticizers such as dioctyl phthalate (DOP), diisononyl phthalate (DINP) and di-propyl heptyl phthalate (DPHP) are by far the predominant types, representing around 75-85% of plasticizers produced and consumed in the world. However, environmental and health concerns being attributed to orthophthalates - more so to low phthalates such as DOP - have led to a decline in their use against a growing trend for using more environmentally-friendly compounds such as dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP). Non-phthalate plasticizers include dioctyl adipate (DOA), 1,2-cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid diisononyl ester (DINCH) and trioctyl trimellitate (TOTM). ICIS pricing quotes DOP, DINP, DOTP, DOA, DPHP, DINCH and TOTM in the US; DOP, DINP and DOTP in Asia-Pacific; and DOP, DINP, DOTP and DPHP in Europe.
