Eco-Efficiency Analysis, SEEBALANCE
DINCH is the most eco-efficient non-phthalate plasticizer for PVC applications such
as balls, garden hose and medical tubing. It offers significant toxicological advantages over the
complete life cycle, especially considering consumer exposure.

The Eco-Efficiency label can be
awarded to the listed PVC
products using Hexamoll
DINCH as a plasticizer. It was
shown that they are more eco-
efficient than the alternative
systems.

and the supporting inventory and impact assessment calculations, the main conclusions of the critical
reviewers are as follows:
the input data is detailed and up-to-date and is treated according to the methodology following
DIN ISO 14040 et seq.
the system boundaries are appropriate and the alternatives are clearly and sufficiently modelled.
the anal ysis shows that Hexamoll DINCH is the most eco-efficient plasticizer for the described
applications, having the lowest total environmental impact.
Excerpt:
Die Prozessketten und die dafr erforderlichen Input-Daten wurden detailliert erfasst und gem dem
Bewertungsverfahren aufbereitet... Die verwendeten Datenquellen sind ausreichend und aktuell... Entsprechend der
vorgesehenen Anwendung und der getroffenen Annahmen wurden die Systemgrenzen richtig gesetzt, das System
ausreichend und deutlich beschrieben und die erhaltenen Daten entsprechend der Methode aggregiert. Durchgefhrte
Sensitivittsbetrachtungen sttzen das vorliegende Ergebnis...
Im Ergebnis zeigt sich, dass Hexamoll DINCH der koeffizienteste Weichmacher fr die vorgesehenen
Anwendungen, mit den niedrigsten gesamten Umweltauswirkungen, ist.
