Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
Various efforts for producing more eco-friendly plasticizers have been carried out by using biobased sources such as diester succinates, which display better biodegradation behavior and...

to offer solutions that are compliant with these regulations or eliminate the use of phthalate plasticizers altogether in the manufacture of their products. To achieve the first goal, manufactures need a reliable source of viable alternatives to service their customers. Several alternative plasticizers available today can respond to this challenge.
Hanwha Solutions' phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH offers
Eco-DEHCH is one of the most recognized phthalate-free plasticizer developed by a research team at Hanwha Chemical, providing eco-friendly alternative for hazardous dioctyl phthalate (DOP)...

- 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 biobased plasticizers safe?
- Biobased plasticizers, (66−68) such as soyabean oil, castor oil (as examples provide in previous paragraph), cardanol, and isosorbide, can provide safe alternatives based on their hypotoxicity, renewability, degradability, and plasticizing performances. (68) Preventing regrettable substitutions is a considerable challenge for scientists globally.
- 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.
- Can bio-based plasticizers replace phthalate plasticizer?
- Researchers have prepared a series of eco-friendly plasticizers with new structures by esterification, etherification, and epoxidation of bio-based raw materials, many of which have the potential to replace traditional phthalate plasticizers [23, 24, 25].
- Are bioplastics a viable alternative to synthetic plastics?
- Bioplastics are potential candidates for the sustainable development of ecofriendly products due to their degradability in natural environment and similarities in physiochemical and mechanical properties with that of synthetic plastics .
