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...
Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
On the other hand, these new bio-based plasticizers can also ameliorate mechanical and thermal properties of PVC like traditional plasticizers, and are eco-friendly, low priori toxic and resistant to migration. Thus, preparing high performance bio-based plasticizers will still be a research hotspot in this field for a long time.
Production Technologies of Various Types of Environmentally
The production technologies of environmentally friendly plasticizer oils such as TDAE, TRAE, MES, and NAP for the rubber and tire industries are considered. Their basic physicochemical properties and specific application examples are presented. The influence of the types of plasticizer oils on the performance properties of rubber products and tires is described.
Bioplastic made from seaweed polysaccharides with green
Green production methods can even improve the synthesized method and quality of seaweed films. Seaweed unlike other biomaterials can be harvested from the ocean, does not need pesticides to farm, and high yield. Seaweed films with green production methods are fast, cheap, and eco-friendly compared to conventional methods.
Bioplastic made from seaweed polysaccharides with green
Green production methods for seaweed bioplastics To produce seaweed bioplastics, seaweed hydrocolloids are usually extracted and processed into films. The common methods include washing, milling, drying, alkali, acid, neutralization formaldehyde, hot water, filtration, and precipitation.
- What are alternative plasticizers?
- Alternative plasticizers are still being sought, including oils such as palm oil (Hasan et al., 2020), rosehip seed oil (Darie-Niță et al., 2021), epoxidized chia seed oil (Dominguez-Candela et al., 2021), epoxidized soybean oil (Alhanish & Abu Ghalia, 2021) olive oil or corn oil ( Giannakas et al., 2017) and fatty acids ( Srinivasa et al., 2007 ).
- Are there green alternatives to plastic pollution?
- Some suitable green alternatives are required to reduce plastic pollution. Plastics are referred green if they are from renewable resource, biodegradable or compostable after the end of life, and their processing is environmentally friendly.
- 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 .
- Are bioplastics a green approach to sustainable environment?
- Bioplastics: A Green Approach Toward Sustainable Environment. In: Singh, A., Srivastava, S., Rathore, D., Pant, D. (eds) Environmental Microbiology and Biotechnology.
- Which plasticizer has the best mechanical properties?
- Of the plasticizers we synthesized, the best film mechanical properties were provided by OC plasticizer, containing primarily propylene glycol monoacetate, but also propylene glycol diacetate, acetic acid and propylene glycol in its mixture.
- Can plasticizers be used in food packaging environments?
- This demonstrated excellent performance compared to the 10.94% migration rate of DOTP-50 in acidic food with pH < 5.0 after 240 h, indicating that these plasticizers can be safely used in the corresponding food packaging environments. Weight loss of PVC films in food simulant tests.
