Abstract
AbstractLiquid polymers of ethyl, n‐butyl, and 2‐ethylhexyl acrylates were prepared using an anionic initiating system. Liquid polyethyl acrylate was tested as a plasticizer in a stabilized and unstabilized polyvinyl chloride plastisol composition. In the unstabilized composition, fused samples were obtained which were comparable in color to a di‐2‐ethylhexyl phthalate (DOP) plasticized polyvinyl chloride sample prepared under the same conditions. Stress–strain tests on stabilized films indicated that with liquid polyethyl acrylate as the plasticizer a film was obtained showing higher tensile strength, yet equivalent ultimate elongation as compared to a similarly prepared DOP plasticized composition.
