2 Emoltene 100 Flexible, versatile and safe As the world moves toward safer, more sustainable plasticizers, Perstorp re-emphasizes its product offer Emoltene 100, a versatile general purpose PVC plasticizer alternative that was launched in Since its introduction, Emoltene 100 has maintained a high performance rate with a solid health and safety profile. Adding flexibility and a longer product life Employed in flexible vinyl applications, Emoltene 100 can be used across a wide range of industries, including the wire and cable, roofing, outdoor and automotive sectors. This versatile phthalate ester plasticizer is a colorless, odorless liquid that improves the properties of vinyl. Emoltene 100 expands the lifespan of end products while boasting a strong resistance to some of the harshest weather conditions. In addition, its inherent low density equates to an increased volume of PVC compound thereby increasing the overall number of product pieces. Reliable supply and consistent performance As one of the world s top three largest producers, Perstorp is investing in a fully integrated supply chain of DPHP and its related raw materials. Our robust and reliable line of internal production allows us to tightly control a sustained level of product excellence, ensuring top quality and consistent performance every time. We offer a reliable supply with flexible purchasing options. Sustainable Alongside Perstorp s invested commitment toward a secure supply, Emoltene 100 is already well accepted in the marketplace, where it is replacing and phasing out classified chemicals. In meeting the rigorous demands of European regulations and customer expectations, Emoltene 100 provides manufacturers with an excellent product that optimizes their mission to improve the quality of end applications while safeguarding customers, consumers and the environment. Perstorp takes pride in providing innovative chemical solutions that answer the global demand for environmentally responsible products. As such, Perstorp continues its ongoing commitment toward developing new generations of specialty PVC plasticizers that seek to improve both performance and sustainability. In purchasing Emoltene 100, you choose one of the market s most exceptional products in the alternative plasticizer arena with a high technical performance and a secure chain of supply.

4 High performance from every angle High phthalate products, such as dipropylheptylphthalate (DPHP), are a new generation of alternative PVC plasticizers designed to meet modern safety regulations without sacrificing performance or quality. These products is already well accepted in the marketplace, where it is replacing classified chemicals, including the once widely used DOP. Emoltene 100 is consistently chosen as a preferred plasticizer due to its technical performance, long lifespan and wide versatility. Its overall durability and resistance to extraction, evaporation and migration are key attributes that distinguish its position in the competitive market. Performance Strength Emoltene 100 is a high-performing and versatile phthalate ester plasticizer. It offers excellent plasticizing effect, which allows vinyl sheaths to bend and twist without cracking, an important safety feature for many end applications. With its tightly bound 10-carbon chemical backbone, Emoltene 100 s structure naturally bolsters the performance properties of vinyl, which include: Greater durability Extended product lifetime Premium weather resistance Excellent mechanical heat ageing resistance High UV stability & color security Emoltene 100 is often selected as the general-purpose plasticizer of choice given its versatility. Its isometric C10 alcohol-based frame is generally easy to substitute into existing formulas and processing procedures, usually requiring only minimal adjustments. Density Compared with other plasticizers, Emoltene 100 provides a lower density that can be critical for applications that are seeking an overall lower weight. Due to its low density, the resulting larger volume of a PVC compound translates into an increase of pieces or square meters within an end application, such as plastic articles and foil product. In screw processing, Emoltene 100 contains compound benefits from its high bulk properties that support both a higher production output and lower torque. Volatility Emoltene 100 displays an excellent permanence at elevated temperatures. When used in applications where products are exposed to high temperatures, Emoltene 100 s low volatility properties enable products to be more resistant to natural degradation that also helps limit migration concerns and supports its durability. In addition, the product s low rate of waste generation supports competitiveness by its extending its product lifetime.

6 Tough & flexible solutions for value segments Wire and cables With the benefit of a long life span and low volatility, DPHP products, such as Emoltene 100, are typically applied to the insulated material of wires in a wide range of everyday machines and appliances as well as transmission cables and fiber optics. Automotive Emoltene 100 plays a critical role in enhancing the safety, quality, affordability and comfort of today s vehicles. When combined with PVC, Emoltene 100 can be used in underbody coatings, internal wires, passenger compartments, interior surfaces and small exterior trims and fittings. When mixed with PVC, Emoltene 100 offers virtually limitless flexibility and maximizes the bend and twist of wire and cables without cracking. Manufacturers have the ability to select the precise degree of flexibility, both in sheathing strength and thickness, to meet the specific mechanical requirements of their end applications. Used in underbody coatings, Emoltene 100 helps minimize corrosion by protecting the metal underbody of a car. As an ingredient to electrical wire, Emoltene 100 is suitable when high resistance to degradation is required while maintaining the necessary flexibility to safely cope with mechanical stress and road disturbances. Liners, roofing & tarpaulins As a component for roofing membranes and other outdoor applications, Emoltene 100 provides a tough resistance to the harshest of weather conditions, including extensive ultraviolet (UV) and ozone exposure. Due to its versatility, Emoltene 100 facilitates the unique specifications of difficult shapes and ranges of resistance found within automotive design, such as sun visors, arm rests and window seals. With its lightweight properties, Emoltene 100 also helps vehicles reduce their overall weight, which ultimately lowers fuel consumption and decreases road wear. Its durability makes Emoltene 100 an ideal choice for manufacturers who aim to provide their customers a top-performing product with a long lifespan and minimal maintenance.
