A Better Alternative to Phthalates? | NIST
Phthalates are often called plasticizers and can be found not only in personal care products to help them maintain a gel-like consistency but also in garden hoses, inflatable toys and medical tubing. “They are used to provide flexibility in plastics. Think of a rubber ducky and how squishy it is.
(19) TZZ Z T
to discontinue use of phthalates as a plasticizer due to concerns over potential adverse health effects. Thus, plasticizer compositions that reduce or eliminate phthalates, but perform similarly to DINP or other effective phthalate plasticizers, would be greatly appreciated in the art.
Dibenzoate Plasticizers Offer a Safer, Viable Solution to
Dibenzoate plasticizers are highly solvating monomeric plasticizers that decrease processing times and lower processing temperatures. In addition, they offer superior resistance to extraction by solvents such as kerosene, cotton seed oil and soapy water. From a health and environmental perspective, the European Chemical Agency (ECHA) listed
- What is plasticizer phthalate?
- Plasticizer phthalate is a pollutant. Its teratogenic or carcinogenic effects on human. Phytotoxic effects of phthalate and its transmission through food chain. Abatement of phthalate via bioremediation. Microbe-mediated soil-phthalate bioaugmentation approaches.
- Are phthalate esters a good plasticizer?
- Being inexpensive, nontoxic (in an acute sense), colorless, noncorrosive, biodegradable, and with easily tuned physical properties, phthalate esters are nearly ideal plasticizers.
- Does unplasticized PVC have phthalates?
- Only unplasticized PVC (uPVC), which is mainly used as a hard construction material, has no plasticizers. If a more accurate test is needed, chemical analysis, for example by gas chromatography or liquid chromatography, can establish the presence of phthalates.
- Are plasticized cellulose acetate systems dielectric?
- Most of these dielectric studies, however, have been focused on cellulose and its derivatives, and only few results have been reported about dielectric properties of plasticized cellulose acetate systems. Seymour et al., 1979 focused on phthalate plasticizers such as dioctyl phthalate and diphenyl phthalate.
- Can cellulose acetate be used as a plasticizer?
- Due to their high glass transition temperature, cellulose acetate-based systems are processed when blended with plasticizers. It is thus of utmost importance to study the miscibility and plasticizing effects of various molecules. We prepared CDA films via solvent casting method with diethyl phthalate as the plasticizer.
- Is secondary cellulose acetate plasticized by diethyl phthalate miscible?
- We study the miscibility and dynamical properties of secondary cellulose acetate plasticized by diethyl phthalate (DEP). Partial miscibility (characterized by differential scanning calorimetry) is observed above 25 wt% of DEP content. The α-relaxation of the system and its VFT/WLF behavior are studied over a broad frequency range.
