Product Description

Polyflo® 30 is a premium aromatic process oil characterized as a C11-C30 mixture of aromatic hydrocarbons specifically formulated for use as a secondary plasticizer and extender oil in polymer processing applications. This medium-high viscosity aromatic oil delivers excellent compatibility and solvency with polar polymers including flexible PVC, polyurethane elastomers, natural and synthetic rubbers, and epoxy systems. The low mixed aniline point (30.1-34.3°C) indicates strong aromatic character and superior solvating power, enabling efficient dispersion of fillers, improved processing characteristics, and enhanced flexibility in finished products. With a higher viscosity (110-130 cps @ 75°F Brookfield) than lighter Polyflo grades, Polyflo® 30 provides reduced migration and improved permanence in finished compounds where long-term plasticizer retention is critical. The high flash point of 300°F minimum—the highest in the Polyflo plasticizer series—ensures maximum safety during processing operations at elevated temperatures typical of polymer compounding and extrusion applications.
- Excellent Polymer Compatibility: Low mixed aniline point (30.1-34.3°C) indicates high aromatic content for superior solvency and compatibility with polar polymers including PVC, polyurethanes, and SBR.
- Reduced Migration: Higher viscosity (110-130 cps @ 75°F) compared to lighter grades provides improved permanence and reduced plasticizer migration in finished products.
- Maximum Flash Point Safety: 300°F minimum flash point—highest in the Polyflo plasticizer range—enables safer processing at elevated temperatures typical of polymer compounding.
- Secondary Plasticizer Function: Extends primary plasticizers while maintaining compound flexibility, reducing formulation costs without sacrificing performance or longevity.
