Kalama® VITROFLEX® non-phthalate, benzoate plasticizers have excellent safety and regulatory profiles for polysulfides. They enable formulators to eliminate plasticizers facing scrutiny and regulatory pressure, such as benzyl phthalate and chlorinated paraffins. Because Kalama VITROFLEX Plasticizers have been expressly designed for polysulfides, they also offer excellent performance characteristics, compatibility, and value in this application.
