Plasticizers - Chemical Economics Handbook (CEH) | S&P Global - IHS Markit
Mainland China is the singlelargest plasticizer market in the world, accounting for over half of world consumption in 2025; it also has the highest forecast consumption growth during the next few years, spurred by increased plasticizer consumption in goods for both domestic and export markets.
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly Bioplasticizers
Citrate plasticizers have good miscibility, biodegradable, resistant to leaching and water and have legal use as additives. The demand for bioplasticizers is reported to increase from 887...
Effective, Environmentally Friendly PVC Plasticizers Based on Succinic Acid
The development of environmentally friendly polymer additives (bioplasticizers) is driving the plasticizers market due to the increasing demand for eco-friendly products and provides safety for human health and the environment [16]. The global bioplasticizer market was valued at USD 1364 million in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 1709 million
Evaluation of some eco‐friendly plasticizers for PLA films processing
ABSTRACT This study was conducted as a first step in order to obtain green materials for food packaging by using an eco‐friendly bioplastic, polylactic acid (PLA), and nontoxic plasticizers.
- Are biobased plasticizers safe?
- Biobased plasticizers, (66−68) such as soyabean oil, castor oil (as examples provide in previous paragraph), cardanol, and isosorbide, can provide safe alternatives based on their hypotoxicity, renewability, degradability, and plasticizing performances. (68) Preventing regrettable substitutions is a considerable challenge for scientists globally.
- Are emerging plasticizers a regrettable substitution?
- This review compiles available data on toxicity, exposure, environmental effects, and safe production of emerging plasticizers. It identifies gaps in scientific research and provides evidence that emerging plasticizers are potential cases of regrettable substitution.
- Are plasticizers biodegradable?
- Plasticizers are additives used to ensure flexibility to polymer blends and thereby to increase their processability. As the typical plastic component phthalates and other fossil-based components contribute environmental issues since such compounds are not biodegradable.
- Are emerging/alternative plasticizers harmful?
- Various emerging/alternative plasticizers entered the market following the ban on several phthalate plasticizers because of their harmful effects. However, there are limited data (especially peer-reviewed) on emerging plasticizers’ toxicity and environmental impact.
- Are there alternative plasticizers?
- There are a considerable number of alternative plasticizers in employment, without any toxicological data available (dibutyl adipate, diethylene glycol dibenzoate, and bis-2-ethylhexyl sebacate, to name a few).
- How big is the global plasticizer market?
- It has been estimated that the global plasticizer market is expected to grow from 13 967.9 million dollars in 2018 to 16 700.6 million dollars in 2024, (75) thereby indicating the potential magnitude of this emerging environmental problem.
