KETJENFLEX® 12

KETJENFLEX® 12, ATBC, is a bio-based plasticizer that serves as a safe and effective alternative to phthalates in PVC applications. It combines excellent compatibility with PVC and delivers flexibility without compromising mechanical properties. Approved by both FDA and EU regulations for food-contact uses, ATBC is recognized for its low toxicity and high safety profile. Its low volatility and biodegradability make it an environmentally responsible choice. This makes ATBC ideal for medical devices, packaging, and consumer products that require compliance with stringent health and sustainability standards.

KETJENFLEX® 12 delivers outstanding flexibility and softness in PVC plastisols, ensuring smooth film formation and long-term durability. Its low volatility reduces migration and odor, making it suitable for sensitive applications such as gloves, toys and food-contact materials. The plasticizer maintains stable viscosity during processing, enabling consistent performance in high-speed coating and dipping operations. It enhances mechanical properties like elongation and impact resistance without compromising clarity. These attributes position KETJENFLEX® 12 as a reliable, safe, and high-performance solution for modern PVC plastisol formulations.

KETJENFLEX® 12 provides excellent plasticizing performance in NC/PU-based packaging inks, ensuring superior flexibility and film integrity. Its low volatility minimizes migration and odor, making it suitable for sensitive packaging applications. The product enhances adhesion and gloss while maintaining clarity in high-quality ink formulations. It is compatible with a wide range of resins, allowing stable viscosity and easy processing. These properties make KETJENFLEX® 12 a preferred choice for safe, durable, and compliant packaging inks.
