Abstract: The invention relates to a plasticizing composition comprising a vinyl chloride resin and a plasticizing agent which comprises at least one diester having the general formula (I), derived from a diacid selected from succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, ethylsuccinic acid, methylglutaric acid and mixtures thereof wherein: A is a C4 to C6 linear or branched aliphatic chain, and R is an alkyl, a cycloalkyl or an aryl. The plasticizing agent according to the present invention has a good performance for different types of formulations (foam, film and paste). Said plasticizer gels rapidly, has a very low viscosity, and ages very well. Efficient debubblizing is one of the key properties thereof. The foams prepared with said plasticizer have very low densities, a high expansion rate, and excellent qualities.

Abstract: Process for manufacturing a composite material comprising fibers and at least one vinyl chloride polymer comprising the immersion of the fibers in a hydrosol of said polymer in order to obtain fibers coated with said hydrosol followed by the drying and gelling of said hydrosol coated on the fibers. Composite material and use thereof for forming articles or for manufacturing reinforcing objects. Profiles reinforced by this composite material.
