Plasticizers
-
Ascent Chemical’s Other portfolio covers specialty esters for HI&I, personal care, cosmetics and rubber. It includes straight ester solvents for low-odor degreasing, fast wetting, and quick drying, and plasticizers for flexible, durable films in floor finishes, sealants, and adhesives. Formulators can tune chain length and structure for solvency and evaporation rate, keep foam low, and maintain clear, stable blends. Phthalate and non-phthalate options support regulatory targets.

Ascent Chemicals' Straight Esters are solvent alkyl esters that dissolve oily soils, speed drying, and reduce odor versus hydrocarbons while keeping foam low. Use in degreasers, adhesive and tar removers, hard surface and metal cleaners, and vehicle care. Chain length and branching let you tune solvency, evaporation rate, and plastic compatibility, and they blend well with anionic or nonionic surfactants for clear, stable concentrates.
