Plastisol viscosity reduction and control is an important property specification in many vinyl plastisol formulations. A unique benzoate plasticizer is under development that functions as a viscosity reducer. It also is a highly solvating plasticizer in standard plastisol systems. Data are presented on the effects of the new benzoate plasticizer on the properties of phthalate‐ and benzoate‐containing plastisols and vinyl sheet.
