Plasticizers are a vital component in soft PVC plastics where durability and flexibility are important properties, for example in flooring, artificial leathers, tarpaulins, toys, automotive interiors, and cables. Perstorp, with a successful history within the field of plasticizers, now launches Pevalen as a non-phthalate plasticizer meeting market demand in sensitive applications.
Pevalen – non-phthalate with an uncompromising performance Pevalen is a plasticizer based on well-proven, reliable chemistry. As a non-phthalate plasticizer alternative it does not compromise performance in any way. In fact performance is equal to or better than other plasticizers used today.
Pevalen is very efficient, which means your formulation requires less plasticizer. In combination with low migration and volatility the performance is unmet by other plasticizers. Pevalen also displays excellent UV stability making it a perfect choice in applications exposed to sunlight.
Pevalen is easier and faster to blend with PVC than most other plasticizers. This reduces processing time, helps you increase capacity of your existing production line, and maintains a low production cost ensuring a robust manufacturing process.
Pevalen is a well-proven product that is REACH-registered. Pevalen is based on food-approved raw materials and the process for obtaining food contact approval for Pevalen is underway.
A more sustainable solution too PVC is a highly appreciated material in applications that require exceptional durability for a long service life. As a high performance non-phthalate plasticizer Pevalen contributes to a more sustainable PVC solution. PVC and Pevalen is a winning combination for long life products that are safe and hygienic to use. Many of these products require little or no maintenance giving the plastics a low cost and trouble-free service lifetime.
Pre-marketing of Pevalen has shown that the product is suitable for a number of close-to-consumer applications and it has initially been met with raving customer reviews.
