CITROFLEX™ PLASTICIZERS
Phthalate-Free Plasticizers
Aurorium Citroflex™ citric acid esters provide a wide range of benefits when used as plasticizers with aqueous- and solvent-based polymers. Aurorium Citroflex™ esters offer formulators a unique combination of environmentally friendly features by combining efficient plasticization with low toxicity, high flash points, and rapid biodegradability.With the growing consumer demand for environmentally-friendly plastics and coating applications, it is more important to transition to plasticizers with non-VOCs (volatile organic compounds). Derived from bio-based raw materials, Aurorium citric acid esters offer a greener alternative to adipates, phthalates, and sebacates in various polymer applications.
- Readily biodegraded by microorganisms in the soil
- Low order of chronic toxicity
- Phthalate Free, No HAPs and Non-VOC
- Imparts the proper balance of properties and low toxicity to PVC
