The glossary here http://www.sgia.org/glossary/Ff.cfm gives the following definition :

Flexibilizer -
material that is added to rigid plastic to make it resilient or flexible.

Hope it helps.

The glossary is of course correct. The suffix "-ize" (mostly American English and appearing as "-ise" in British English) is added to a word to give the meaning "to make something into something else" or "to add a certain quality to something".

stabilize = make stable
pasteurize = make free from harmful microorganisms
flexibilize = make flexible
