DaveMc1 Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 I know heat stabilizer is Butyl stearate. Softener is DOP. What is hardener? Not all. The stabilizer I currently have is not Butyl Stearate. Most Worm oil is DINP, most Softeners are DINP with a few other chemicals added to keep the everything in the right proportions when you add it. Hardener will be the PVC resins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robalo01 Posted August 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 I have never bought hardener. I mix my own plastic. The resin I uses comes in powder. Is hardener thick and gummy? In the pics it looks like a clear liquid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robalo01 Posted August 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 I will start by saying I an in Mexico. For years I imported plastic from the USA. But a couple of years ago I invested in a recipe and supplier list (initial investment was about $3k usd. I currently sell my plastic here locally.
