Eastman plasticizers improve the flexibility and mechanical properties of wire jacketing and insulation materials. By reducing stiffness and increasing elasticity, our plasticizers make materials easier to handle, bend and install, even in tight spaces. This flexibility enables efficient wire routing and installation.
Using the right plasticizer contributes to a product’s thermal stability and helps it withstand a wide temperature range without losing flexibility or becoming brittle. This is essential for maintaining electrical wiring integrity and performance in various conditions.
Eastman plasticizers provide chemical resistance to protect wires from damage caused by exposure to chemicals, oils, solvents and other environmental factors. This resistance helps maintain electrical system performance and reliability. Plasticizers also contribute to durability and longevity in formilations that are resistant to high temperatures by improving flexibility and resistance to environmental factors. This helps prevent cracking, aging and degradation.
