Brief description
Applications & benefits
Extraction-resistant against cleaning agents and many industrial substances
Migration resistance (including against polystyrene) comparable to polymeric plasticizers
Works synergistically with metal compounds, often allowing metal stabilizer levels to be cut by up to a quarter
Improves transparency, bondability, printability, and weldability of the finished product
Available from PT Bahtera Adi Jaya's local stock, with shorter lead times than direct import.
Backed by complete technical documentation (COA, MSDS/SDS) and formulation support from our technical sales team.

Frequently asked questions
What is EFKA PL 5381 and what is it used for?
Epoxy plasticizer / co-stabilizer (for PVC, nitrocellulose, chlorinated rubber) based on Soybean oil, epoxidized (minyak kedelai terepoksidasi / ESBO), functioning as an epoxy plasticizer and co-stabilizer that improves heat, light, weather, and oxidation resistance of vinyl resins and cellulose derivatives in PVC and vinyl copolymer systems, nitrocellulose products, and chlorinated-rubber-based paints/coatings formulations. Available in oxirane content ~6,65%; acid value ~0,25 mg koh/g; iodine value ~2,5 g i/100 g; iodine colour index ~1,5; indeks bias ~1,472 specification, BASF product, and 200 kg packaging. EFKA PL 5381 is supplied in Indonesia by PT Bahtera Adi Jaya.
What is the recommended dosage for EFKA PL 5381 in formulations?
The use level commonly referenced in the product's technical documents is 10–15% of total plasticizer content in vinyl resin manufacturing (up to 30% in special cases); ~5% to stabilize phosphate plasticizer and chlorinated paraffin. The final dosage still depends on the formulation system, so small-scale trials are recommended before mass production.
Are COA, MSDS, and technical support documentation available?
Yes. Every shipment is accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS/SDS) matching the production batch. For other regulatory documents (e.g. halal certification or special specifications), please contact our sales team.
