EPOXIDIZED SOYBEAN OIL
Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESBO) is a stabilizer and plasticizer to maintain softness and flexibility at varying temperature ranges. Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESBO) is a bio-degradable and renewable replacement and cost efficient alternative for phthalate plasticizers in PVC compounds, applications and other plastic materials. We can offer several grades of Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESBO), a regular or medical grade, key difference is the POV value of the product.

UV Cure applications
Epoxidized soybean oil (ESBO) is a collection of organic compounds obtained from the epoxidation of soybean oil. It is used as a plasticizer and stabilizer in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics. ESBO
Epoxidized soybean oil is an yellowish viscous liquid that manufactured from soybean oil through the process of epoxidation. Polyunsaturated vegetable oils are widely used as precursors to epoxidized oil products because they have high numbers of carbon-carbon double bonds available for epoxidation. The epoxide group is more reactive than double bond, thus providing a more energetically favorable site for reaction and making the oil a good hydrochloric acid scavenger and plasticizer. Usually a peroxide or a peracid is used to add an atom of oxygen and convert the -C=C- bond to an epoxide group.
