Plasticizers
Plasticizers
To minimize dependence on external suppliers, ATS Synthetic Pvt. Ltd. established its own Chemical Division in 1999. This division produces major raw materials consumed in-house for PVC leather and PVC films, and these materials are also sold in local and international markets. The ATS Chemical Division offers a wide range of plasticizers specifically used in the rubber, PVC wire, footwear, inks, coatings, and plastics industries.
With a designed capacity of over 35,000 TPA, our superior technology, combined with the expertise of our team, makes our plasticizers the best in the market in terms of quality, clarity, and purity. Our competitive edge lies in our maximum ester content, better clarity, and improved color stability.
Every batch undergoes stringent quality control procedures and pre-delivery inspections before reaching our customers. ATS has become the largest producer of various plasticizers in Pakistan. To date, we produce the following plasticizers and are continuously enhancing our product range:
- DOP (Di-Octyl Phthalate)
- TOTM (Tri-Octyl Trimellitate)
- DOA (Di-Octyl Adipate)
Di-Octyl Phthalate (DOP)
DOP is primarily used as one of several plasticizers in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resins for fabricating flexible vinyl products. It is a colorless, oily liquid with a slight odor, produced through an etherification process via catalytic reaction. DOP is highly compatible with PVC and provides an excellent plasticizing effect.
DOP is a major raw material in PVC resins for manufacturing many products, including teething rings, pacifiers, soft squeeze toys, balls, vinyl upholstery, tablecloths, shower curtains, raincoats, adhesives, coatings, components of paper and paperboard, defoaming agents, enclosures for food containers, animal glue, surface lubricants, and other products.
Di-Octyl Adipate (DOA)
DOA is a light-colored, oily liquid commonly used as a phthalate alternative for PVC. It is a monomeric adipate that offers excellent efficiency characteristics along with good low-temperature performance. DOA can be used alone or blended with other plasticizers, such as DOP.
As a phthalate alternative, DOA is highly recommended for electrical insulation, film, and sheeting applications in low temperatures, as well as for low-viscosity plastisols. It is also compatible with cellulose acetate butyrate, chlorinated rubber, ethyl cellulose, nitrile, nitrocellulose, polychloroprene, and polyvinyl butyral.
