High-Temperature Plasticizers (TOTM, DOA, TINTM)

• 27.11.2025

High-temperature PVC applications require plasticizers that exhibit low volatility, excellent thermal stability and long-term extraction resistance. The most commonly used options include TOTM, DOA and TINTM.

1. TOTM (Trioctyl Trimellitate)

• Extremely low volatility

• Outstanding high-temperature performance

• Ideal for automotive cables & electronics

• Excellent extraction and migration resistance

2. DOA (Dioctyl Adipate)

• Superior low-temperature flexibility

• Food-contact suitability

• High clarity formulations

3. TINTM (Triisononyl Trimellitate)

• Similar thermal resistance to TOTM

• Improved processing speed

• Suitable for mid-to-high temperature applications

Applications

• High-temperature wire & cable insulation

• Automotive interior components

• Heat-resistant PVC profiles

• Wide-range temperature flexible hoses

Conclusion

Each high-performance plasticizer offers unique advantages. Selecting the right one ensures durability, heat resistance and regulatory reliability.
