This paper is on the enhancement of physical properties achieved through utilization of linear plasticizers in flexible PVC compounds. This paper also emphasizes the use of statistical methods and designs of experiments. In a series of experimental designs, electrical, oven‐aging, and low temperature performance of commercially available phthalate plasticizers were evaluated. Test data will be given to show the effect of plasticizer functionality on the performance properties of flexible PVC compounds.
