Bioplasticizer - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Levulinic acid can be extracted from cellulosic materials in biomass. Segetis Inc. has developed technology to react this acid with an epoxide producing a ketal. If a fatty acid ester, such as an alkyl epoxy soyate, is used as the epoxide source, materials are produced that can be used as plasticizers [39]. Although several suppliers are
What are the main types of plasticizers? - WSD Chemical
with high weatherability. The main proudct is epoxy soybean oil and epoxy fatty acid methyl ester. 5. Polyester plasticizers generally have low plasticizing efficiency, high viscosity, poor processability and low. temperature, but low volatility, low mobility, oil resistance and soap water extraction, so they are good durability . plasticizers.
Epoxy ester plasticizer.
The epoxy ester plasticizer is mainly used as a secondary plasticizing penalty for polyvinyl chloride products with high weatherability. Its varieties include epoxy soybean oil, epoxy fatty acid octyl ester and so on. (1) epoxy soybean oil. Soybean oil fatty acids with a mixture of glycerin, epoxy - oil is a yellow oily liquid, non-toxic
- Can epoxidized fatty acid Isobutyl esters be used as biobased plasticizer in PVC?
- However, few studies on the preparation and application of epoxidized fatty acid isobutyl esters (Ep-FABEs) as the biobased plasticizer in PVC were reported. In this paper, a two-step approach, including transesterification and epoxidation, was adopted to prepare Ep-FABEs using biodiesel as the raw material, as shown in Fig. 1.
- What are biobased plasticizers?
- To date, biobased plasticizers mainly include epoxidized fatty acid methyl esters (Ep-FAMEs) , aliphatic diesters , epoxidized triglycerides , and citrate plasticizers .
- Does epoxidized fatty acid 2-ethylhexyl ester increase migration resistance?
- The obtained epoxidized fatty acid 2-ethylhexyl esters showed better migration resistance than that of Ep-FAMEs . The transesterification reaction proved to be a simple and efficient method to increase the molecular weight of Ep-FAMEs and hence improve their migration resistance.
- Why are EP-FAME fatty acid methyl esters so popular?
- Among them, Ep-FAMEs have received considerable attention because of its high plasticizing efficiency and low cost, which can be directly acquired from unsaturated fatty acid methyl esters by using percarboxylic acids or organic/inorganic peroxides , , , .
- Are biobased plasticizers a good alternative to phthalates?
- With the restricted use of phthalates plasticizers (DOP, DBP) in food package, medical equipment, and cosmetics, biobased plasticizers as a promising alternative to phthalates plasticizers have been increasingly and widely used in various PVC products, due to their renewability, low toxicity, and biodegradability , .
- Are EP-Fabes a good plasticizer for PVC industry?
- Moreover, Ep-FABEs exhibited better resistance to extraction and migration than another biobased plasticizer Ep-FAMEs. In summary, Ep-FABEs derived from renewable sources have good potential as an environmentally friendly plasticizer in PVC industry.
