K-FLEX® Dibenzoate Plasticizers from Emerald Kalama Chemical achieve excellent performance and compatibility with the polar polymers used in waterborne adhesive applications, such as direct food contact adhesives and pressure-sensitive adhesives. The wide compatibility of K-FLEX plasticizers ensures a one-product fit for both homopolymer and copolymer formulations.
K-FLEX dibenzoates offer exceptional performance characteristics in these applications, including:
K-FLEX® Plasticizers are value-added alternatives to phthalates such as dibutyl phthalate and diisobutyl phthalate, which have become increasingly scrutinized for health and safety concerns. K-FLEX Plasticizers offer excellent regulatory, safety, and environmental profiles. They are non-phthalate, low-VOC, and REACh compliant, as well as listed under FDA food contact approvals for food packaging applications.
Very high purity, urethane-grade modifier for reactive polyurethane systems
Superior, urethane-grade dibenzoate for polyurethanes with consistently low OH
Urethane-grade, classic dibenzoate for performance in polyurethane applications
High solvating, economical plasticizer for adhesives and caulks, as well as other PVC and PVA applications
Most versatile dibenzoate plasticizer, offering exceptional low temperature flexibility and compatibility with a wide range of polar polymers and rubbers; excellent choice for many high-solvating plasticizer applications
Versatile dibenzoate plasticizer for performance in vinyl, adhesives, sealants, and coatings, offering excellent compatibility with polar polymers and a low freeze point for easier handling.
Low-VOC dibenzoate plasticizer optimized for use in waterborne latex applications, especially adhesives, where it improves tack, reduces set times, and suppresses Tg
