Product Description

Epoxidized Soybean Oil is used in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as the second plasticizer and stabilizer. With adding ESBO into PVC, it is able to save cost of main plasticizer and increase light and heat stability of PVC by absorbing HCl that it is released from decomposed PVC. ESBO is made by soybean oil which is natural oil, so it is a non-toxic additive.  ESBO is also used to replace volatile solvents in paints to make Biopaint as the requirements of the Clean Air Act.  It can also be applied to clean line production or machine with requirement of nontoxic and no corrosion. In addition, it is used in polyurethane foam, printing ink, oil paint, coating, synthetic rubber, and liquid compound stabilizer, adhesive and so on.
