Polyester plasticizers with benzoic acid end-caps

A two-part polymeric sealant composition, having an A side and a B side, comprising:

• a. a polysulfide polymer present in the A side of the two-part polymeric sealant, and
• b. a polyester plasticizer that is a propylene glycol adipate end-capped with benzoic acid esters or a propylene glycol succinate end-capped with benzoic acid esters present in the B side of the two-part polymeric sealant,
• wherein the polyester plasticizer has a Mw in the range of at least about 500 to about 5000.

A polymeric adhesive composition, comprising:

• a. a polymer that is polyvinyl acetate or ethylene vinyl acetate, and
• b. a polyester plasticizer that is propylene glycol adipate end-capped with benzoic acid esters or propylene glycol succinate end-capped with benzoic acid esters,
• wherein the polyester plasticizer is present in the polymeric adhesive composition in amounts ranging from about 5 to about 20 wt. %, based on the weight of the wet adhesive.

A plastisol comprising:

• a. a polyvinyl chloride homopolymer or copolymer or an acrylic-based polymer, and
• b. a polyester plasticizer comprising propylene glycol adipate end-capped with benzoic acid esters or propylene glycol succinate end-capped with benzoic acid esters,
• wherein the polyester plasticizer is present in amounts ranging from about 30 to 110 parts by weight for every 100 parts by weight of the polyvinyl chloride homopolymer or copolymer or acrylic-based polymer.
