    Core Features & Benefits

    1. ‌Exceptional Compatibility & Efficiency‌: ‌WSD CHEMICAL's‌ DOP exhibits superior compatibility with PVC resins, synthetic rubbers, and many other polymers. It offers high plasticizing efficiency, rapidly softening the compound to achieve desired flexibility with a lower dosage compared to many alternatives, providing excellent cost-performance.

    2. ‌Excellent Low-Temperature Flexibility‌: Imparts outstanding low-temperature flexibility and elongation to PVC compounds, ensuring products remain pliable and crack-resistant in cold environments, a key benefit for many flexible applications.

    3. ‌Good Electrical Insulation Properties‌: Provides reliable electrical insulation, making it a suitable and economical choice for general-purpose wire and cable insulation and sheathing compounds supplied by ‌WSD CHEMICAL‌.

    4. ‌Low Volatility & Good Processing Stability‌: Features relatively low volatility and good heat stability during processing, contributing to consistent product quality and minimal fuming in standard processing conditions.

    5. ‌Versatile & Proven Performance‌: As the industry benchmark for decades, DOP from ‌WSD CHEMICAL‌ delivers consistent, predictable results across a wide spectrum of applications, backed by extensive global usage data and technical know-how.

    Primary Applications

    · ‌Flexible PVC Products‌: Films, sheets, hoses, tubes, flooring, wall coverings, and synthetic leather.

    · ‌Wire & Cable‌: General-purpose insulation and sheathing (for non-high-temperature resistant grades).

    · ‌Consumer Goods‌: Toys (where regulations permit), stationery, and various molded or extruded goods.

    · ‌Adhesives & Sealants‌: As a plasticizer to improve flexibility and workability.

    · ‌Other Polymers‌: Used as a plasticizer in certain synthetic rubbers and cellulose derivatives.

    Recommended Usage

    · ‌Typical Loading‌: 30 - 100 phr (parts per hundred resin), adjustable based on the required softness and application.

    · ‌Processing‌: Highly compatible with all standard PVC mixing and processing techniques (e.g., calendering, extrusion, injection molding). ‌WSD CHEMICAL‌ provides formulation guidance to achieve optimal results.

    Packaging & Storage

    · ‌Packaging‌: Available in 200 kg drums, 1000 kg IBC totes, and bulk tanker loads. ‌WSD CHEMICAL‌ offers reliable and flexible packaging to suit your production scale.

    · ‌Storage & Handling‌: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and open flames. Keep containers tightly sealed. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) from ‌WSD CHEMICAL‌ for detailed handling instructions.

    Regulatory Note & WSD CHEMICAL's Guidance

    It is important to note that the use of DOP is restricted or prohibited in certain applications (e.g., children's toys, food contact materials, medical devices) in many regions (e.g., EU, USA, China) due to regulatory concerns. ‌WSD CHEMICAL‌ is committed to responsible product stewardship. We recommend consulting the latest local regulations for your target market. For applications requiring non-phthalate alternatives, ‌WSD CHEMICAL‌ offers a full range of solutions, including DOTP, DINP, and other specialty plasticizers.
