RESSOL is an eco-friendly plasticizer that can replace phthalate plasticizers like DOP and DBP in PVC products. It is efficient, flexible, and safer than traditional plasticizers. RESSOL can replace up to 30% of DOP without changing processing techniques or impacting product performance. It has properties like heat and electrical resistance that make it suitable for uses in toys, wires, pipes, flooring, and other applications. RESSOL is soluble in organic solvents, consistent with PVC, and improves plasticization while shortening processing times and lowering costs compared to DOP.
1. RESSOL - ECO FRIENDLY PLASTICIZER
INTRODUCTION
RESSOL, a new type of plasticizer for PVC toys and chemical
Products, can replace DOP, DBP and ensure the same quality upon
different PVC products. It can be used in plastic products, like plastic
film, wire, cable, gas pipe Rubber sealing strip, tubular product
Footwear, and artificial leather cloth. RESSOL as an eco friendly
plasticizer is efficient, has good impermissibility, with a high safety
factor and is very flexible.
RESSOL AS A DOP REPLACEMENT
RESSOL based ester compound which can replace 30% of DOP and in turn gives
saving to the manufacturer who is in the competitive PVC line market as well as
performance based line markets. The development has been done by manufacturing
suitable ester based dependable quantity of DOP Replacement under the trade name
RESSOL.
RESSOL can be used to the tune of 30% as a DOP replacement on the basis of
practical usage in all types of PVC compounds.
PROPERTIES OF RESSOL
RESSOL Plasticizer, an oil liquid with light color, can completely
replace DOP and DBP. As a non-toxic plasticizer, this plasticizer doesn’t
contain phthalate, including 16P, reported by SGS. It can replace DOP as
a new type of plasticizer with good function at physical property and
2. mechanical properties. RESSOL has properties such as excellent
electric strength, resist heat, low volatility. The manufacturer can save
cost when they use RESSOL substitute for DOP as raw material of PVC
products
CHARACTERSTICS OF RESSOL
Can completely replace DOP, DBP, DHP.
Shortens the time of kneading.
Improves processing fluidity.
Lowers the temperature of plasticizing.
Acts as a solvent to other plasticizers.
Replaces DOP with the same quantity not changing the techniques.
In addition, RESSOL exhibits comparable performance characteristics to DOP:
•
Dry Time
•
Tensile Strength
•
Elongation Percentage

3. Tear Resistance
PROCESSING OF RESSOL
BASIC PROCESS:
The Basic Process to Be Followed In Processing
RESSOL - For Replacing DOP Should Be Done By
Two Methods
1. For Dry Compounding
2. For Wet Compounding
DRY COMPOUNDING
In Processing Of The Dry Compounding Resin Should Disperse With
70% Quantity DOP Which Is Used By The User In Previous Type Of
Processing In Mixer Along With Other Additives Required By Him For
Finished Product They Produce And Take Mixer Temp Between 60-70
Degree By Running The Mixer & Then Add 30% Of RESSOL Followed
By Same Process
WET COMPOUNDING
In This Process The 30% RESSOL Should Be Mix Properly With
DOP/DBP Properly And Resin Should Be Mix Considering This Same
Quantity Blended Product Should Be Consider As Total Quantity He Is
Using Of DOP As Per Requirement
RESSOL for Various Application Areas:
The excellent performance characteristics of RESSOL have led to its adoptions in
various sensitive and diverse applications.
4. Some common uses of RESSOL are:
Indoor Surfaces
RESSOL is a ready replacement for general purpose phthalates, and is widely used
in flooring applications from PVC carpet backing to vinyl composite tile, luxury
vinyl tile and commercial and residential sheet applications
Flexible PVC
RESSOL can be used from childcare items to toys to garden hoses as it works with
most flexible PVC applications.
PVC Leather Cloth
RESSOL is used for manufacturing leather cloth, footwear, raincoats, cable
compounds, PVC Film/Sheets etc.
RESSOL can also be used in non polymer applications including anti-corrosion
paints, anti fouling paints, inks, adhesives and sealants.
PROCESSING FOR PU/PVC LEATHER CLOTH
PU/PVC leather manufacturing process includes the base
fabric processing, compound preparation, coating and
laminating, gel change, surface treatment, embossing,
cooling, coiling process, etc. There are four types of
5. production methods for processing with PVC LEATHER
CLOTH which are as follows:
1. Direct coating method
Will melt direct coating with blades in the pretreatment of base of cloth and
into the box on the DOP/DBP/DHP/DOA(70%) + RESSOL 30%+100 ML
PHENOL 40 MIXTURE to Gel plasticization and plasticizing, then the
embossed, cooling process, that finished products. This law can produce all
kinds of cloth of the ordinary artificial leather, artificial leather and leather
skin foam.
2. Transfer coating method
Also called indirect coating method. Will the paste with inverse roller or
scraper coated in carrier (from type paper tape or stainless steel belt), after the
gel is initiated, then the Yankees from cloth under tension in the composite
material layer of the gel DOP/DBP/DHP/DOA (70%) + RESSOL 30%+100
ML PHENOL 40 MIXTURE, then the plasticizing, cooling and separated
from the carrier, then the post-processing, that finished products. This method
is suitable for the production of knitted fabrics or non-woven foamed artificial
leather and ordinary artificial leather.
3. Rolling stick legal
According to the formula requirements, the resin, plasticizer
DOP/DBP/DHP/DOA(70%)+RESSOL 30%+100 ML PHENOL 40
MIXTURE and other chelating agent measurement, investment in kneading
machine mixing, again mixing mill and open mixing mill or extruder tried
after plastic, send to the three rollers or four roll calendar (see plastic
machinery rolling into the thickness and width of the film, and in advance of
the base fabric with heating joint, then by embossed, cooling that finished
product. This law can produce different cloth and various kinds of artificial
6. leather. In order to improve the base fabric and thin films, often in the joint
effect on the base fabric with a layer of adhesive first.
4. Extrusion stick legal
Resin, plasticizer mixture DOP/DBP/DHP/DOA(70%)+RESSOL 30%+100
ML PHENOL 40 MIXTURE and other chelating agent in the mix in kneading
machine, the refined model, the extruder crowded into a certain thickness and
width of the membrane layer, and then in the three rollers on the base and
preheat shaped-machine joint cloth, then the preheating, paster, embossing,
cooling that finished products. This method is used in the manufacturing of
the thick products, such as de den, conveyor belt and so on.

MISSIBILITY OF RESSOL
RESSOL is soluble in hydrocarbon compounds, ketones, esters, higher
grade alcohols and other organic solvents, slightly soluble in ethanol as
well.
RESSOL is particularly consistent with PVC and has low volatility and
mobility. Its high thermal stability, light stability and good resistance to
water and oil endow the products with better mechanical strength,
weather resisting property and electrical property. Its non-toxicity makes
it the internationally acknowledged chemical aid for foodstuff wrapper.
RESSOL, its features include light color, good plasticized capacity,
good heat stability, anti cold and hot, waterproof with good electrical
capacity.
8. USAGE CRITERIA:
RESSOL has excellent plasticizing properties, better dissolvability, it is
safe to use and moreover products made from RESSOL would have
more flexibility. It is cheaper than DOP and it replaces it completely or
partially in the PVC formulations. Thus, it reduces the cost and increases
the competitiveness of the market.
