中文简体With the improvement of global environmental awareness and the increasingly stringent relevant regulations, the plastics industry is undergoing a profound change. Against this background, TOTM plasticizer (full name: tricaprylic acid triglyceride plasticizer) has become the focus of attention in the industry with its superior environmental protection and performance characteristics, and has gradually become the preferred plasticizer for plastic products.
Characteristics of TOTM plasticizer
TOTM plasticizer is a high-performance, high-heat-resistant environmentally friendly plasticizer. Compared with traditional phthalate plasticizers (such as DEHP, DINP), TOTM has the following significant advantages:
High heat resistance: TOTM can still maintain its plasticizing effect under high temperature conditions and is suitable for plastic products that require high heat resistance, such as cable sheaths and medical devices used in high temperature environments.
Anti-migration: TOTM has low migration, which means that it is not easy to seep out of plastic products during use, thereby reducing potential harm to the human body and the environment.
Environmentally friendly and safe: TOTM does not contain heavy metals and harmful substances, complies with strict environmental regulations in the EU and other regions, and is a green and environmentally friendly plasticizer choice.
Market demand and application areas
As consumers pay more and more attention to environmental protection and health, the market demand for TOTM plasticizers is growing rapidly. According to market research data, the global TOTM plasticizer market size has reached US$1 billion in 2023, and this figure is expected to double by 2027.
In terms of application areas, TOTM plasticizers are widely used in medical devices, food packaging materials, cable sheaths and high-performance plastic products. Among them, the application ratio of TOTM in the fields of medical devices and food packaging is rapidly increasing. Its non-toxic and harmless characteristics make it an ideal choice for these fields with extremely high safety requirements.
