General Description

Linseed oil, butyl ester epoxidized is a chemically modified form of linseed oil, which is derived from the seeds of the flax plant. The butyl ester form of linseed oil has been epoxidized, meaning that it has undergone a chemical reaction to introduce epoxide groups into the molecular structure. This modification enhances the oil's properties, making it more resistant to heat, chemicals, and UV radiation. Linseed oil, butyl ester epoxidized is commonly used as a plasticizer and stabilizer in the production of flexible PVC products, such as wire and cable insulation, flooring, and automotive parts. It is also utilized in coatings, adhesives, and sealants, where its high resistance and low volatility are advantageous.
