Santicizer 141
2-ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate (CAS # 1241-94-7)
Fast Fusing, Fire Retardant Plasticizer
Santicizer® 141 is a fast-fusing, non-halogen, fire retardant plasticizer used in multiple polymer systems. This plasticizer is recommended for applications where there is a need to reduce the risk of fire. This versatile additive has FDA clearances making it an option for applications that involve indirect food contact. In PVC, Santicizer® 141 acts as a high solvating plasticizer, offering performance, faster fusion and high plasticizing efficiency. Santicizer® 141 is also used as a lubricant additive, hydraulic fluid, and rubber processing aid.
Benefits
• An active fire suppressant replacing other plasticizers which may act as fuels
• Compatibility in many polymer systems offers versatility
• High plasticizer efficiency to reduce plasticizer loadings
• Fast-fusing plasticizer in PVC systems to boost throughput
• Non-halogenated, non-regulated
• FDA indirect food contact clearances under 21CFR 175.105 Indirect Food Additives:
