  • Applications

    Chemical name: Bis(2-ethylhexyl) cyclohexane-1,4-dicarboxylate; CAS number: 84731-70-4 is primarily used as a plasticizer for polymers and plastics, providing flexibility to PVC and other resin systems. It is typically employed as a processing aid and softener in coatings, inks, and adhesive formulations, aiding processability and film formation. The material can function as a solvent or carrier in some formulated products, and is occasionally evaluated as a non-phthalate alternative plasticizer for elastomer and polymer systems. In electronics and coatings applications, it may be used in dielectric or encapsulation formulations where flexible, durable films are required. Use is generally subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
