PVC resins and plasticizers play a critical role in industrial and outdoor flexible applications having specific requirements, such as durability, flexibility, electrical performance, chemical extraction resistance, etc. Selecting the most appropriate product enables our customers to meet targeted performance and requirements, while ensuring cost-effectiveness without performance trade-offs.
Key applications in this segment include wire and cable insulation & sheathing, films & rolled films, tubes & hoses, boot, gloves & shoe soles.
The following sections present recommendations on resin grades and plasticizers for key application areas, reflecting practical formulation insights and the performance criteria demanded by specific product requirements.
1. Wire & Cable Insulation and Sheathing
Recommended Plasticizers
Regular (UL 60℃): DOP, DINP - high plasticizing efficiency, cost-effective, suitable for standard cables and wires
Phthalate-Free (UL 70~80℃): DOTP - environmentally-friendly, superior electrical volume resistivity
Heat-Resistant (UL-90℃): DPHP - superior aging & migration resistance, good electrical volume resistivity
High-Temperature-Resistant (UL-105℃): TOTM, TINTM - phthalate-free, excellent thermal stability
Auxiliary Plasticizer & Heat Stabilizer: ESBO - mainly as auxiliary stabilizer for cost optimization
Adipate Polyester Options: 615 (migration-resistant), 640 (high plasticizing efficiency, DOP alternative)
Recommended PVC Resins: SG-5 (general), SG-3 (high flexibility)
For matte-finish products, please refer to PVC Matting Resin SG-5 and PVC Resin Matting SG-3.
2. Industrial PVC Films & Rolled Films
Recommended Plasticizers
General Films: DOP, DINP - cost-effective, high plasticizing efficiency, high PVC resin compatibility, good stability
Eco-Friendly Films: DOTP - phthalate-free, suitable for environmentally regulated markets (e.g. EU, US)
Special Requirements: 630 (low exudation, solvent extraction-resistant)
Auxiliary Stabilizer & Heat Stabilizer: ESBO - mainly as auxiliary stabilizer for cost optimization
Recommended PVC Resins: SG-5 (general), SG-3 (high flexibility)
For matte-finish products, please refer to PVC Matting Resin SG-5 and PVC Resin Matting SG-3.
3. Insutrial Tubes & Hoses
Recommended Plasticizers:
General-Purpose: DOP, DINP - high plasticizing efficiency, excellent PVC resin compatibility, cost-effective, good stability
Phthalate-free: DOTP - suitable for environmentally regulated markets (e.g. EU, US)
Special Requirements: DPHP (low-migration, heat-resistant, aging resistant), 615 (migration-resistant, oil & solvent-resistant, wear-resistant), 620 (oil-resistant, good elongation)
Auxiliary Stabilizer & Heat Stabilizer: ESBO - mainly as auxiliary stabilizer for cost optimization
Recommended PVC Resins: SG-5 (general), SG-3 (high flexibility, elongation, elasticity)
For matte-finish products, please refer to PVC Matting Resin SG-5 and PVC Resin Matting SG-3.
4. Industrial Boots, Gloves & Shoe Soles
Recommended Plasticizers:
General-Purpose: DOP, DINP - high plasticizing efficiency, excellent PVC resin compatibility, cost-effective, good stability
Special Requirements: 615 (migration-resistant, oil & solvent-resistant, wear-resistant), 620 (oil-resistant, good elongation), 630 (low exudation, solvent extraction-resistant)
Auxiliary Stabilizer & Heat Stabilizer: ESBO - mainly as auxiliary stabilizer for cost optimization
Recommended PVC Resins: SG-5 (general), SG-3 (high flexibility, elongation, elasticity)
For matte-finish products, please refer to PVC Matting Resin SG-5 and PVC Resin Matting SG-3.
