Plasticizers – Benefits, Trends, Health, and Environmental Issues
Plasticizers soften the PVC to make it flexible and bendable. This opens up a huge range of possibilities for new applications. One of the main benefits of plasticizers is the durability they confer onto PVC applications, which can ensure high performances for up to 50 years.
- Can WCO be used for preparing internal plasticizer?
- However, WCO can be used for the preparation of fine chemicals such as internal plasticizer. With this aim, this work is focused on preparing internal plasticizer by using WCO and determining technical viability of non-migration poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) materials.
- Can WCO be used as a plasticizer for PVC?
- As an alternative, WCO is regarded as a good resource instead of edible oil to produce plasticizers for PVC, especially in some developing areas. Similar to structural modification of vegetable oil, reducing the degree of the –C C- unsaturation is still the main approach [Jia et al., 2018; Zheng et al., 2018; Feng et al., 2018].
- Is WCO a good alternative to edible oil for PVC plasticizers?
- However, these raw materials, i.e., the edible vegetable oils, are in short supply in some developing countries, thus hampering the wide application of such green plasticizers. As an alternative, WCO is regarded as a good resource instead of edible oil to produce plasticizers for PVC, especially in some developing areas.
- How are WCO-based plasticizers synthesized?
- Most WCO-based plasticizers were synthesized by a conventional epoxidation approach, where the –C C- bond was converted to the epoxy group with the assistance of peroxy acid. Compared with internal oxirane, the terminal epoxy group in plasticizer enhanced the plasticizing effect and thermal stability of PVC [Chen et al., 2017].
- Can waste cooking oil be used as a plasticizer?
- This paper reported the preparation of a renewable plasticizer originated from waste cooking oil (WCO). The plasticizing effect of the developed material on the properties of poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) was studied.
- Does epoxidized WCO plasticizer provide better compatibility with PVC?
- While the production of epoxidized WCO plasticizer was reported, very limited information was available on the introduction of epoxy groups to the ester bond in WCO. It is expected that WCO-based plasticizer with a higher epoxy value could provide better compatibility with PVC.
