Conversion of fatty acid methyl ester to epoxy plasticizer by auto
Among the alternatives of phthalates, epoxidized vegetable oil (EVO) or fatty acid alkyl esters (EFAAEs), typically epoxidized fatty acid methyl esters (EFAMs), are a type of bioplasticizer that can be produced from vegetable oil biomass or its derived FAAEs such as fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) which are also known as biodiesel.
Conversion of fatty acid methyl ester to epoxy plasticizer by auto
Fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) can be converted to epoxy plasticizer by in situ auto-catalyzed formation of performic acid (PFA) in a bi-phase reaction system. However, mass transfer effect could be neglected in a well-stirred reaction system. A pseudo-homogenous kinetic model was thus developed to describe the kinetics of FAME epoxidation.
Insights into biobased epoxidized fatty acid isobutyl esters
The Ep-FABEs was further analyzed for its plasticizing effectiveness to replace dioctyl phthalate (DOP) and compared with conventional epoxy plasticizer epoxidized fatty acid methyl esters (Ep-FAMEs).

- What is epoxy fatty acid methyl ester?
- Epoxy fatty acid methyl ester Description: Epoxy fatty acid methyl ester is colorless or light yellow liquid at ambient temperature. It is a new type of environmental friendly plasticizer with vegetable oil as raw material. It can replace all kinds of main plasticizers such as DOTP, DOP, DBP, DINP, TBC, DINCH and so on.
- Can Fames be converted to epoxy plasticizer?
- Conclusion Conversion of FAMEs to epoxy plasticizer could achieve a co-production of biodiesel and bio-plasticizer. The epoxidation of FAMEs is usually performed in an oil-water bio-phase system with in situ formed peracid as an oxygen carrier.
- Can cooking oil methyl esters replace toxic dioctyl phthalate?
- Structural modification of waste cooking oil methyl esters as cleaner plasticizer to substitute toxic dioctyl phthalate J. Clean. Prod., 186 ( 2018), pp. 1021 - 1030 These authors contributed equally to this work.
- What is the difference between DOP and plasticizing efficiency?
- 8. Plasticizing efficiency is higher than DOP, it can reduce the total amount of plasticizer.
- What are epoxidizing agents?
- For most of the works on preparation of EVO or EFAMEs, short chain peracids (usually peracetic acid and performic acid (PFA)) generated in situ by reaction of a carboxylic acid with hydrogen peroxide (HP) under the catalysis of various acid catalysts, are used as an epoxidizing agent.
- What is the kinetic model of epoxidized oil?
- Most of the kinetic models are developed based on the two-step mechanisms, namely that peroxy acid is formed from the reaction between formic or acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide while in the second stage epoxidized oil is produced by the reaction between peroxy acid and double bond in the oil.
