Plasticizers designed particularly for high temperature performance. retaining good characteristics of migration resistance and volatility, workability, flexibility and gelling power, also at low temperature. They are a good compromise at low and high temperature for demanding electrical application, specially automotive cables.
Obtained from trimellitic anhydride and linear or branched alcohol. They retain the principal characteristics of phthalate additives but improving thermal properties.
