Diisodecyl Phthalate (DIDP) is an important plasticizer widely used in the production process of plastics and other synthetic materials. As a chemical additive, it can improve the flexibility and processing performance of materials, so it plays an important role in many industries.
1. Improve the flexibility and durability of materials
The primary function of Diisodecyl Phthalate is to increase the flexibility of plastics. During the manufacturing process, it can significantly reduce the glass transition temperature of polymers, so that the material still maintains good flexibility in low temperature environments. This provides great advantages for plastic products that need to be used for a long time, such as cable sheaths, conveyor belts, etc. Materials with better flexibility can adapt to changes in different environmental conditions and are not easy to crack or damage, thereby improving the durability of the product.
2. Widely used in the cable and pipe industry
Diisodecyl Phthalate is a plasticizer, especially suitable for the cable industry. It can keep the outer layer of the cable soft, which is convenient for laying and installing the cable. At the same time, this plasticizer also plays an important role in the service life of the cable. It can effectively improve the cold resistance and aging resistance of cables, reduce aging and hardening caused by long-term use, and ensure that cables maintain good electrical conductivity for a long time.
In addition, Diisodecyl Phthalate is also widely used in pipe production. Especially in the production process of pipes that need to improve corrosion resistance and chemical resistance, it can significantly enhance the chemical resistance of plastic pipes, allowing these pipes to be used under extreme conditions and widely used in chemical, petroleum and other industries.
3. Enhance transparency and processing performance
Diisodecyl Phthalate also has the function of enhancing transparency and improving processing performance. In some plastic products that require high transparency, such as transparent packaging materials, food containers, etc., adding Diisodecyl Phthalate can improve the transparency of the products and make the final products more competitive in the market. In addition, it can also improve the fluidity of materials in the production process, reduce processing difficulty, shorten production cycle, and improve production efficiency.
4. Environmental friendliness and safety
With the improvement of environmental awareness, many manufacturers are paying more and more attention to the impact of plasticizers on the environment and human health when choosing plasticizers. Compared with some traditional plasticizers, Diisodecyl Phthalate's low volatility and low migration make it safer in many applications and less likely to have a negative impact on the surrounding environment. In addition, Diisodecyl Phthalate has good biodegradability, so it has less impact on the environment after use, which meets current environmental protection requirements.
