Internally Plasticized PVC by Four Different Green
Various efforts for producing more eco-friendly plasticizers have been carried out by using biobased sources such as diester succinates, which display better biodegradation behavior and comparable
A Strategy for Nonmigrating Highly Plasticized PVC - Nature
Nonmigrating highly plasticized PVC was prepared based on a new compound that acts as a plasticizer that was derived from di (2-ethylhexyl) 4-hydrophthalate and chlorinated paraffin-52. The...
Effective, Environmentally Friendly PVC Plasticizers Based on
Succinate esters are promising PVC environmentally friendly plasticizers that can replace toxic phthalate plasticizers. They are not only less toxic than phthalate plasticizers but also show better resistance to plasticizer migration from the polymer matrix.
Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
Many bio-based PVC plasticizers, such as vegetable oil-based plasticizers, cardanol-based plasticizers, lactic acid-based plasticizers, waste cooking oil-based plasticizers, polyester plasticizers, hyperbranched plasticizers and so on, have been extensively studied.
Effective, Environmentally Friendly PVC Plasticizers
Four environmentally friendly plasticizer samples were obtained; their chemical structures and compositions were confirmed by gas chromatography (GC) and infrared spectroscopy (FT–IR) analyses,...
- Are plasticizers environmentally friendly?
- Four environmentally friendly plasticizer samples were obtained; their chemical structures and compositions were confirmed by gas chromatography (GC) and infrared spectroscopy (FT–IR) analyses, and their physicochemical properties and thermal stability (TGA analysis) were investigated.
- What are green non-toxic plasticizers?
- With increasing of the degree of national environmental policy and export bans of Europe and America, more and more green non-toxic plasticizers are developed and applied in the PVC. Among them, ESO, one of green non-toxic plasticizers recognized by FDA, has received much attention during the past several decades .
- Is polyvinyl chloride a green plastic?
- Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is widely used as a commodity plastic in various industries and daily life. However, its green development is limited due to the fact that most plasticizers are either toxic or derived from food products.
- Is plasticizer design a good choice for PVC products?
- Ultimately, the proposed plasticizer design approach holds broad application potential, capable of meeting the stringent demands of modern PVC products for high performance, low migration, and excellent thermal stability.
- Which PVC plasticizer is best for biodegradation?
- DHS was found to be the best PVC plasticizer, which is a compromise between longer molecules favorable for plasticization and shorter molecules favorable for biodegradation.
- Can plasticizers replace petroleum-based plasticizer in PVC applications?
- Compared to DINP and DEHP, the migration was as much as 70% lower for each plasticizer concentration. Thus, due to their good compatibility, efficiency and thermal properties, the plasticizers synthesized in this research have the potential to replace petroleum-based plasticizers in PVC applications.
