Eastman™ plasticizers

Adhesives

Plasticizers improve the performance of adhesives by creating much-needed elasticity, optimizing viscosity, low-temperature efficiency, set time functionality, impact resistance, and even tack.

Eastman offers a diverse portfolio of non-phthalate, high-solvating plasticizers to help adhesive manufacturers meet performance and regulatory challenges. For example, because they provide the optimal balance of performance and value for water-based adhesives, our Eastman Versafix™ plasticizer and benzoate-based Benzoflex™ plasticizers, have become the standard of excellence for the industry.

In most cases, our non-phthalate alternatives can be substituted for phthalates without requiring significant changes to your manufacturing operations.
