Plasticizers Derived from Biomass Resources: A Short Review
With rising environmental concerns and depletion of petrochemical resources, biomass-based chemicals have been paid more attention. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plasticizers derived from biomass resources (vegetable oil, cardanol, vegetable fatty acid, glycerol and citric acid) have been widely studied to replace petroleum-based o-phthalate plasticizers. These bio-based plasticizers mainly include
Application of Different Vegetable Oils as Processing Aids
Siwarote et al. (20) have investigated the suitability of three different vegetable oils (tea oil, palm oil, and coconut oil) as a plasticizer in silica-filled NR composites. For comparison, the authors have used petroleum-based naphthenic oil (NTO) as a reference.
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plasticizers derived from biomass resources (vegetable oil, cardanol, vegetable fatty acid, glycerol and citric acid) have been widely studied to replace petroleum-based o
A methodological review on bio-lubricants from vegetable oil
Vegetable oils such as rice-bran, cottonseed, groundnut, sunflower, rapeseed, sesame, palm kernels, coconut, linseed, castor, sal, neem, karanja are easily available in India. Various methods for epoxidation of vegetable oils are tabulated below. 6. Biodegradable grease Grease is an effective means of providing lubrication to the machine component.
New developments in vegetable oil materials science - AOCS
Vegetable oils are a mixture of unsaturated fatty acids with double bonds that act as reactive sites where the molecules can be chemically modified. Oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid contain one, two, and three double bonds, respectively.
- Can vegetable oil be used as a plasticizer?
- Vegetable oil contains flexible long fatty acid chains and rich unsaturated bonds and can be used to produce epoxy plasticizer. Epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) has been industrialized and used as primary plasticizer in food packing materials.
- Which vegetable oils can be used to make bio-based plasticizers?
- In addition to the above-mentioned biomass raw materials, there are other vegetable oils used by researchers to prepare novel bio-based plasticizers, such as sunflower oil [19, 56], jatropha oil , cottonseed oil , rubber seed oil and palm oil , which also has broad prospects.
- What is epoxidized vegetable oil based plasticizer?
- Petroleum based plasticizer are standard compounding ingredients, however epoxidized vegetable oil-based plasticizer is employed as a feasible alternative [ 4 ]. Vegetable oils are derived from plants and are chemically composed of different triacylglycerols, i.e., esters of glycerol and fatty acids [ 5 ].
- Can Epoxidized vegetable oil be used as plasticizer to PLA?
- In this study, two types of epoxidized vegetable oils (EVO), which are the epoxidized palm oil (EPO) and mixture of epoxidized palm oil and soybean oil (EPSO), are used as plasticizer to PLA via melt blending technique.
- Are green plasticizers derived from soybean oil a renewable resource material?
- Jia, P.; Zhang, M.; Hu, L.; Zhou, Y. Green plasticizers derived from soybean oil for poly (vinyl chloride) as a renewable resource material. Korean J. Chem. Eng. 2016, 33, 1080–1087. [Google Scholar] [CrossRef]
- How vegetable oil based flame-retardant Plasticizers improve flame retardancy of PVC product?
- Vegetable oil-based flame-retardant plasticizers provide rich carbon combined with flame-retardant elements to improve flame retardancy of PVC product by promoting the formation of char residue. Cardanol and vegetable oil have been the two most important biomass feedstocks for producing plasticizers.
