Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
Bioplasticizers are derived mainly from biomass sources including agricultural products, it’s by-products and waste. Regardless of the biomass source, ideal bioplasticizers are expected to be...
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
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 kiltonnes in 2016 to 1900 kilotonnes in 2025 with a corresponding revenue of $1124 Million dollars 2016 to $2683.7 Million dollars by 2025.
EcoFriendly Plasticizers IHS Chemical - IHS Markit
Eco-Friendly Plasticizers PEP Report 62B Published December 2014 Plasticizers are organic esters, which is compounded into polymers to facilitate processing, and to improve flexibility and toughness of the final products through internal modification of the polymer morphology.

- What are natural biodegradable plasticizers?
- Natural biodegradable plasticizers can be isolated from the agro products and litters that are cost-effective, sustainable, and huge abundant. Several natural plasticizers originate from agricultural products like trees, oleaginous plants, cereals, vegetables, and fruits, as well as their waste .
- Where is plasticizer made?
- Up to 6.5 tons of it will be produced every year at a petrochemical industrial complex in the southeastern port city of Ulsan, South Korea. Plasticizer is a chemical substance capable of making plastics softer, and phthalate is one of the most common materials to achieve it.
- Why are biodegradable plasticizers important?
- Leachable plasticizers made of petroleum are causing growing environmental and health concerns because they are so dangerous to the environment. Therefore, searching for novel biodegradable plasticizers is of increasing interest of researchers across different domains. So, there is a need to develop bio-based plasticizers from natural sources.
- What are biodegradable thermoplastics & plasticizers?
- To overcome these problems, researchers began to focus on biodegradable thermoplastics and plasticizers. Plasticizers is a highly branched polysaccharide stored in plants as an alternative to currently used non-biodegradable plasticizing compounds.
- What is a plasticizer?
- In general, plasticizers can be defined as low molecular weight (between 300 and 600) , high boiling point materials which are added to a film-forming polymer to enhance its flexibility, durability, processability, and workability . Their addition can avoid shrinking during storage , and in some cases reduce costs .
- Where do natural plasticizers come from?
- Several natural plasticizers originate from agricultural products like trees, oleaginous plants, cereals, vegetables, and fruits, as well as their waste . Utilizing bio-based wastes as natural plasticizers, various polymers and materials have been tested.
