Plasticizer for Polyurethane-based Sealant Sanflex
SANFLEX
SANFLEX is a phthalate-free plasticizer. SANFLEX contains a modified polyether structure, and has excellent blooming out resistance. SANFLEX is inactive to isocyanates and has excellent storage stability. SANFLEX products are widely used as plasticizers for polyurethane-based sealants.
Polyurethanes and the use of common plasticizers for versatility
Plasticizers are used in many products. And Sanyo Chemical America plasticizers are making polyurethane more versatile. Sanyo Chemical America makes a variety of plasticizers with an excellent anti-migration property.
Our plasticizers help regulate the properties in polyurethane, making polyurethane more more pliable and easy to extrude so it can be used in many more applications.

SANFLEX GPA-3000 is a high molecular weight polyether acetate with excellent blooming out resistance.
SANFLEX EB-200 is a polyether benzoate type plasticizer with low viscosity
FAQ About Plasticizers for Polyurethane
Plasticizers are substances that are added to plastics to give them flexibility and make them easier to process.
The plasticizer penetrates into intermolecular spaces of polyurethane, weakening the intermolecular forces, and making each of the molecular chains easier to move, so the glass transition point of the polyurethane becomes lower.
Thus, the plasticizer gives the polyurethane flexibility.
