Adhesives, Industry News, Sealants,

Evonik Oxeno reports that it is expanding its production capacities for the INA-based plasticizers, ELATUR® CH (DINCH) and ELATUR® DINCD. These products, introduced in recent years, have both now established themselves as new standard plasticizers with Evonik Oxeno customers.

“The capacity expansion marks another important milestone in the diversification of our plasticizer portfolio,” said the managing director of Evonik Oxeno, Frank Beißmann. “To meet the growing demand for these products, we will begin work this year.” The capacity expansions will be integrated into the existing network of C4 plants in Marl.

“With the expanded capacity, we can ensure our customers a high level of delivery reliability and quality from European production,” said Roland Pietz, vice president of Oxo Alcohols & Plasticizers at Evonik Oxeno. Evonik reports that in addition to the ELATUR® product line, VESTINOL® 9 (DINP) remains a crucial component of their Oxeno portfolio. Evonik Oxeno is dedicated to the strict scientific evaluation of this and all other plasticizers, ensuring a high level of supply security for its customers. Like all Evonik Oxeno products, ELATUR® CH and ELATUR® DINCD can also be produced and supplied using mass-balanced methods from biobased, biocircular, circular raw materials, or utilizing green energy, according to the company.
