  • Where are mexiflex® plasticizers made?
  • Under the brand MEXIFLEX®, we produce plasticizers for PVC compounds at our facility in Altamira (Mexico). We also produce phthalic anhydride. Vertical integration allows us the flexibility to manage the supply chain. It also gives us the innovative ability to create materials to our exact specifications.
  • What is TOTM (trioctyl trimellitate)?
  • TOTM (trioctyl trimellitate) TOTM is an ester produced by reacting trimellitic acid with 2-ethyl hexanol. Manufacturers could consider it the plasticizer of choice for drug infusion or chemotherapy materials because of its significant chemical resistance. It has extremely low volatility.
  • What is the best alternative plasticizer?
  • Based on Table 1, the TOTM is the best alternative plasticizer. But since it received a low rating specifically in RBC hemolysis, DINCH could be considered for medical devices intended to hold blood for infusion or storage. The TOTM possesses the required attributes, and manufacturers can use it for other purposes.
  • What is a plasticizer used for?
  • The plasticizer occupies about one-third of the PVC employed to assemble a medical device, like an infusion set. Manufacturers used DEHP as the principal plasticizer in the previous decades due to its relatively low cost and ability to stop the destruction of red blood corpuscles (RBC).
  • Why do we use plasticizers in PVC?
  • The addition of plasticizers in PVC aims to supply the softness and flexibility of the compound. The plasticizer occupies about one-third of the PVC employed to assemble a medical device, like an infusion set.
  • What are the features of a plasticizer?
  • Perfect for a variety of flexible and semi-rigid applications, features of plasticizers include: Excellent low temperature and food contact properties General use in the vinyl industry with maximum residual alcohol of 350 ppm Ask about our DOTP plasticizer grades manufactured with recycled PET bottles
