  • How have plasticizer imports impacted the oxo-alcohol industry?
  • Imports of all general-purpose plasticizers have been competitive, as freight rates fell and the local markets in Asia failed to show any demand improvement, particularly China on which hopes had been pinned. As gas prices and propylene costs have gradually come down, oxo-alcohol producers have been less squeezed.
  • What are plasticizers used for?
  • Plasticizers make materials more malleable and less brittle by lowering the intermolecular tensions between polymer chains, which lowers the glass transition temperature. In addition to improving the flexibility and elasticity of materials, plasticizers are essential in products like PVC pipes, cables, and vinyl flooring. Plasticizers Price Chart
