However, when subjected to temperatures above 43\u00baC, plastisol viscosity increases and, when reaching temperatures of over 160\u00baC, it can change from a liquid to a solid state after cooling as a result of process known as gelation.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-12269 size-full\" title=\"plastisol gelation and fusion\" src=\"https:\/\/oliverbatlle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gelacion-plastisol-en.jpg\" alt=\"plastisol gelation and fusion\" width=\"823\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oliverbatlle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gelacion-plastisol-en.jpg 823w, https:\/\/oliverbatlle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gelacion-plastisol-en-300x124.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oliverbatlle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gelacion-plastisol-en-768x317.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oliverbatlle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gelacion-plastisol-en-705x291.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 823px) 100vw, 823px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The use of plastisols is widespread in the entire industry. Depending on their formulation, they can be used for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>textile screen printing, with plastisol inks;<\/li>\n<li>footwear, leather goods and upholstery manufacturing;<\/li>\n<li>insulator manufacturing for electrical conductors due to their high corrosion and abrasion resistance, and because they do not conduct electricity;<\/li>\n<li>part moulding manufacturing for toys, masks, key rings&#8230;.,<\/li>\n<li>part manufacturing for the automotive industry such as air or petrol filters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Properties of plastisols<\/h2>\n<p>When determining a plastisol formulation that fits its final use, it is important to consider certain general characteristics of these types of PVC compounds. Among these are the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The optimum operating temperature for this product to attain adequate elongation, tension and non-Newtonian flow properties is 175\u00baC.<\/li>\n<li>The paste&#8217;s viscosity is related to the content and quality of the fillers used. The higher the filler content, the more difficult it is for it to flow.<\/li>\n<li>Hardness: the higher the plasticiser content, the lower the hardness, and the higher the filler content, the greater. When hardness is higher due to the filler content, plastisol has a lower tensile strength, lower elongation and less flexibility.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Rheology<\/h3>\n<p>Rheology is a branch of physics that studies the flow and deformation of matter when it is subjected to shear strength and axial forces. In our article on <a href=\"https:\/\/oliverbatlle.com\/en\/what-is-thixotropy\/\">thixotropy<\/a> we referred to this as a &#8220;rheological property of fluids&#8221;,\u00a0 although we specified the fundamental difference between the rheological behaviour of thixotropic products (decrease in viscosity over time at constant shear rate) and that of pseudoplastics (decrease in viscosity at increasing shear rate).<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the applications for which it has been manufactured, we must consider the rheological properties of the formulation in order to obtain the one that best suits the product in question.<\/p>\n<p>For example, in the case of plastisols for coatings, it is necessary to attain a low viscosity in order to achieve a perfect distribution of the product. This is due to the high deformation speeds caused by the dosing units. However, when low shear rates occur, e.g., during the gelation process, plastisol must be highly viscous to ensure it flows. When plastisols are used to manufacture parts or in rotational moulding, achieving an intermediate viscosity is ideal to guarantee the correct distribution of the product on each part.<\/p>\n<p>In order to achieve different rheological behaviours on plastisols, it is necessary to modify its filler, lubricant or plasticiser formulations, or even the resin particle size distributions.<\/p>\n<h2>What to consider when manufacturing plastisols<\/h2>\n<p>Chemistry manuals define plastisol as the viscous dispersion of a resin suspended in a liquid plasticiser. Depending on its viscosity, it can have liquid or paste-like consistency.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the above-mentioned properties, the characteristics of the equipment used must also be considered when manufacturing plastisols in order to achieve an optimal mixing of the components and avoid agglomeration of the resin or any heating phenomena that could lead to plasticiser evaporation, which would result in an undesirable increase in viscosity.<\/p>\n<p>The shear rate and the order in which the components are added must also be taken into account as this will affect the product&#8217;s rheological behaviour.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Oliver + Batlle<\/strong> has equipment specially designed for manufacturing plastisols depending on batch size and product viscosity. From <a href=\"https:\/\/oliverbatlle.com\/en\/prod\/mixing-equipment-dispermix-vf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DISPERMIX VF-VFR<\/a> for small batches and medium viscosity to <a href=\"https:\/\/oliverbatlle.com\/en\/prod\/mixing-equipment-dispermix-dual-vfd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DISPERMIX DUAL VFD<\/a> with a loop blade mixing component and dispersing shaft for medium batches of medium-high viscosity, both models are equipped with <strong>vacuum lids and special cooled vessels<\/strong>.
