GREENER PLASTICIZERS SAFELYMAINTAIN PERFORMANCE
Newproduct changes everything and nothing DOWECOLIBRIUM™
bio-based plasticiz-
ers fromDowWire &Cable are a new family of products forwire and cable jack- eting and insulation. Environmentally friendly options for building, automotive, personal electronics and appliancewire and cabling, the newcompounds are renewable alternatives to traditional PVC plasticizers that have all the same performance qualities.
DOWECOLIBRIUMbio-based plasticizers:
• Are phthalate- and lead-free
• Reduce greenhouse gases by 40 percent versus traditional plasticizers
• Demonstrate outstanding performance at lowand high temperatures
• Exhibit processing, feel and ease of installation similar to currentmaterials
(Comparable performance toDIDP, can achieve equivalent Shore A at lower loading.)
