Plasticizer WVC 3800 contains up to 1.5% monoester and is stabilized to prevent the formation of peroxide.

What is Plasticizer WVC?Plasticizer WVC 3800 mixes well with PVC and PVB and, thanks to its low viscosity, it provides exceptionally good processability. The low vapor pressure and good ability to mix with other plasticizers such as DOP and DOTP contribute to an optimal result. Plasticizer WVC 3800 is characterized by a high resistance to hydrolysis.

Why Plasticizer WVC 3800?Plasticizer WVC 3800 is used as an additive in films for laminated safety glass and permanent encapsulation of solar cells. WVC is also a valuable plasticizer additive to PVB, where users appreciate key properties such as compatibility with polyvinyl butyral, high transparency, high boiling point, low water content and hydrophobicity. The product is also used as an additive in formulations for water-based adhesives, paints and coatings. Here it has a positive effect on gloss, open time and rheological properties. WVC has exceptionally low VOC content and the plasticizer is also used in many versatile plastisol applications, such as PVC coverings, tubing and textile coatings or in silk-screen printing.
