Synthesis of novel plasticizer ester end-capped oligomeric
With increasing attention to the environment and health, the demand for environmentally friendly plasticizers, which were applied to produce phthalate-free flexible poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC), is becoming more and more urgent.
Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
Plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has been widely used in the world. Petroleum-based plasticizers especially phthalates have been the most common plasticizers used in PVC. However, the global petroleum resources are becoming scarce gradually, and the hygienic requirements for plasticizers are increasing.
Recent Developments of Biobased Plasticizers and Their Effect
Phthalates have been the most commonly employed plasticizers for PVC, but some of these plasticizers demonstrate many toxic effects on the environment and human beings, which consequently limits the use of phthalate plasticizers.
Preparation and Performance of Bio-Based Polyol Ester
Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), as one of the most widely used polymer materials, has been used to prepare various of products such as toys, food packing, wire and cable, optical fiber skin, shoes, ornaments, building decorations and so on, because it has the characteristic of low cost, high mechanical performance and excellent chemical resistance [1,2,3].

- Are phthalate-free Plasticizer-based PVC gels safe?
- Phthalate-based plasticizers, which are commonly used for polyvinyl chloride (PVC), exhibit toxic effects on both the environment and human health, leading to the exploration of phthalate-free alternatives. In this study, phthalate-free plasticizer-based PVC (Pf-PVC) gels were developed.
- Is there a bio-based plasticizer for poly (vinyl chloride)?
- Feng G, Hu L, Ma Y, Jia P, Hu Y, Zhang M, Liu C, Zhou Y (2018) An efficient bio-based plasticizer for poly (vinyl chloride) from waste cooking oil and citric acid: synthesis and evaluation in PVC films.
- Which phthalate based plasticizers are used in the PVC industry?
- Among the traditional plasticizers, phthalate-based plasticizers, such as dibutyl phthalate (DBP), bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), di-iso-nonyl phthalate (DINP), and di-n-octyl phthalate (DNOP), account for more than 90 % of their usage in the PVC industry.
- Can bio-based plasticizers replace phthalate plasticizer?
- Researchers have prepared a series of eco-friendly plasticizers with new structures by esterification, etherification, and epoxidation of bio-based raw materials, many of which have the potential to replace traditional phthalate plasticizers [23, 24, 25].
- What is plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC)?
- Plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has been widely used in the world. Petroleum-based plasticizers especially phthalates have been the most common plasticizers used in PVC. However, the global petroleum resources are becoming scarce gradually, and the hygienic requirements for plasticizers are increasing.
- What are bio-based PVC plasticizers?
- 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.
