The invention provides multilayer surface coverings each having a layer obtained from a filler-containing PVC plastisol and obtained from a filler-free PVC plastisol, each of which comprises a plasticizer composition comprising bis(2-ethylhexyl) cyclohexane-1,4-dicarboxylate. Such surface coverings may be used as floor coverings or as imitation leather.

Use of bis(2-ethylhexyl) cyclohexane-1,4-dicarboxylate as plasticizer in surface coverings

The invention relates to triesters of cyclohexanetripropionic acid, preparation thereof and use thereof as plasticizers for polymers wherein examples of the triester of cyclohexanetripropionic acid include tri(butyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(methylpropyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(pentyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(pentyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(2-methylbutyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(3-methylbutyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(hexyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(hexyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(heptyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(heptyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(octyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(octyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(2-ethylhexyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(nonyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(nonyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(decyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, tri(decyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate, and tri(2-propylheptyl) cyclohexane-1,2,4-tripropionate.
