Compare Favorably with Octyl esters of the new U.S.I, ISOSEBACIC Acid have been evaluated agains t accepted vinyl plasticizers in a complete series of tests a t the U.S.I, laboratories. The performance results, expressed as relative rat ings above, have been cou­pled with current price indexes to show comparisons which a r e meaningful to the maker of vinyl plasticizers. Here a re the conclusions:

The octyl isosebacates are less expensive than sebacates and closely competitive in overall performance. They have an edge over azelates on cost and are about equal in per ­formance. While comparing· closely on cost with the adipates, they a re better on overall performance. On specific proper­ties, such a s heat stability and resistance to extraction by vegetable and mineral oils, the octyl isosebacates a r e supe­r ior to other low-temperature vinyl plasticizers.
