Di Octyl Maleate (DOM)
Di Octyl Maleate (DOM) is a clear, oily liquid used primarily as a specialty plasticizer and intermediate in the production of polymers. It provides flexibility, softness, and improved low-temperature performance in rubber and plastic formulations. DOM is highly compatible with acrylates, vinyl acetate, and other copolymer systems, making it suitable for adhesives, sealants, coatings, and flexible PVC. Its excellent solvency also enhances the processing and film-forming properties of materials.Chemical Formula: C20H36O4
Chemical Code: CAS 2915-53-9
Plasticizer in flexible PVC formulations
Acts as a plasticizer in flexible PVC formulations to enhance softness, flexibility, and processability.Used in manufacturing pressure-sensitive adhesives
Used in manufacturing pressure-sensitive adhesives to improve tack, flexibility, and adhesion strength.Intermediate in copolymer production (e.g., acrylates)
Used as an intermediate in copolymer production (e.g., acrylates) to modify properties like adhesion, flexibility, and durability.
