Plastisol
a concentrated colloidal dispersion of polymers in a liquid plasticizer. Plastisols usually contain from 30 to 80 percent plasticizer. They are used in the production of artificial leather, foamed plastics, and coatings for metal surfaces. The most widely used plastisols are derived from polyvinyl chloride and copolymers that contain vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate.
