Biosoft 32

Description

BIOSOFT 32 is a biodegradable, plant-based plasticizer designed for use in rubber compounding. It is derived from refined rapeseed oil and contains antioxidant and pour-point-depressant additives, ensuring long-term stability and reliable performance even at low temperatures. BIOSOFT 32 provides excellent compatibility with elastomers and improves flexibility and processability in rubber compounds.

Applications

• Plasticizer for natural and synthetic rubbers (e.g. EPDM, NR, CR)
• Suitable for soft and flexible rubber parts
• Eco-friendly alternative to mineral and aromatic oils
• Particularly suitable for outdoor applications requiring low-temperature resistance

Key Benefits

• Excellent flexibility and plasticizing performance
• Light color, low odor
• Excellent low-temperature flow properties
• Biodegradable (> 60% OECD 301D)
• Based on renewable vegetable raw materials
• Fully compliant with REACH and EU regulations (low PAH content)
• No interference with vulcanization at typical loadings

Storage and Handling

Store in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry place. Protect from moisture and contamination. Avoid prolonged exposure to light and elevated temperatures. For more details, refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).

Parameters

Pour Point	The pour point of a liquid is the temperature below which the liquid loses its flow characteristics. < -15 °C
Flash point	The lowest temperature at which enough vapor escapes from a heated sample above its surface into the air that the resulting mixture of vapor and air ignites when an auxiliary flame is brought close to it and then extinguishes again. > 280 °C
Biodegradability in 28 days	Biologically sufficiently rapid decomposition of oil without effect on fauna and flora. Biological decomposition monitored by dissolved oxygen analysis over 28 days. > 60
Density at 15 °C	900-940 kg/m3
Kin. viscosity at 40 °C	The viscosity of a fluid is a measure of its resistance to gradual deformation by shear stress or tensile stress. 30-36 cSt
