Recent Developments of Biobased Plasticizers and Their Effect on
Recently, there has been an increased consciousness of the use of natural resource-based plasticizers instead of phthalates in PVC production, because they are eco-friendly in nature. This review paper covers the utilization of traditional and biobased plasticizers for PVC plasticization, and their effect on environmental, mechanical, and thermal properties has been reported.
Polymers | Special Issue : Green Plasticizers for Polymers - MDPI
The scope of this issue ranges from synthesis of green plasticizers, enhancement of physical and rheological properties, migration of plasticizers upon disposal, relationships between plasticizers and human health, and life-cycle-assessment.
[PDF] Rheology of Green Plasticizer/Poly(vinyl chloride) Blends via
Our group has developed several replacement compounds that have good biodegradation kinetics, low toxicity profiles, and comparable plasticizer properties to DEHP. Knowledge of the rheology of PVC–plasticizer blends at elevated temperatures is crucial for understanding and predicting the behavior of the compounds during processing.
Interfacial effects of plasticizers on the properties of cellulose
Cellulose diacetate (CDA) is a biodegradable biobased polymer, which is not easily melt-processable with a narrow window between flowing and decomposition temperature. Selecting the appropriate plasticizer and evaluating its effect on the properties are important for the application developments of CDA materials. In this paper, eco-friendly plasticizers, such as glycerin (GL), diacetin (DA
Fully Renewable, Effective, and Highly Biodegradable Plasticizer: Di- n
The plasticizer effectiveness of DHPS in poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) demonstrated similar or better plasticizing properties (glass transition temperature, tensile and rheological properties)...
- What is polymer recycling & biodegradable polymer materials?
- Polymer recycling and biodegradable polymeric materials are two major routes toward the sustainable development of polymer materials which contribute to the management of waste.
- How is reclaimed GTR cured into a reactive plasticizer?
- In situ reclaimed GTR with soybean oil was cured into a reactive plasticizer (RP) through a free-radical chain reaction between activated molecular rubber chains and soybean oil.
- How is reactive plasticizer a multifunctional additive to styrene-butadiene rubber/silica compounds?
- RP was obtained by modification of highly reclaimed rubber to control leachable oils and to modulate the reaction. Reactive plasticizers are further explored as a multifunctional additive to styrene-butadiene rubber/silica compounds.
