A potentially general approach to aliphatic ester-derived PVC
As sustainable alternatives, aliphatic ester-derived plasticizers feature low cytotoxicity, biodegradability, and renewability, but they can only partially replace DEHP in PVC formulations because they have a strong tendency to migrate.
PVC Plasticizers and Stabilizers Following Safer Sustainable
PVC is hard and brittle and is only moldable with the addition of a plasticizer and stabilizer. Stabilizers make the processing of PVC possible and safe in the finished product from environmental effects such as heat, ultraviolet light and oxygen.
Combining Renewable Eleostearic Acid and Eugenol
The recent studies on sustainable plasticizer mainly focus on raw material source, synthesis method and plasticization, but the effect of chemical functional groups (epoxy group and ester group) of sustainable plasticizer on compatibility and thermal stability of plasticized polyvinyl chlorid (PVC) materials has been ignored. In this study, two kinds of sustainable plasticizers (eleostearic
Bio-Based Plasticizers for Polyvinylchloride (PVC) | SpringerLink
Natural–based PVC plasticizers increased over the last few years owing to the following advantages: 1. Increase the workability 2. Low toxicity 3. Low migration 4. Good compatibility with PVC 5. Provided from renewable and biodegradable resources 6. Increase the polymer chain flexibility 7. Reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Effect of epoxidized Cassia fistula seed oil (ECFSO) on poly
It is a dire need to replace organic phthalate-based poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) plasticizers because they are harmful to the human body and can cause cancer. They can be replaced with...
- Are plasticizers and stabilizers changing in the PVC industry?
- For example, PVC plastics have been notorious for their extensive use of multiple hazardous ortho -phthalates as plasticizers and cadmium, lead, and tin as stabilizers. Consequently, the use patterns of plasticizers and stabilizers are changing in the PVC industry, shifting from well-known hazardous substances to alternative ones. (11,12)
- Are 'green' stabilizers the future of PVC?
- The development of ‘green’ stabilizers is providing PVC with opportunities to maintain its importance as a material of choice in the plastics industry, asserts Dr. Gerhard Wallenwein of Laves Chemie Consulting in Germany.
- What is a stabilizer in PVC plastic?
- Stabilizers are a key central additive in PVC plastic formulations. Flexible PVC materials are built upon liquid mixed metal soaps that are the most commonly used stabilizers.
- What are the best value-added PVC plasticizer options?
- Let’s now turn our attention to three value-added PVC plasticizer options that exceed the emerging requirements of REACH and European Union (EU) regulation. VESTINOL® 9 DINP is a very cost-effective, general-purpose plasticizer very useful in soft PVC formulations with a broad processing temperature window.
- Are plasticizers a health hazard?
- Wiesinger, H.Legacy and Emerging Plasticizers and Stabilizers in PVC Floorings - Rawdata. Mendeley Data2023, DOI: 10.17632/s4g2y7c7c7.1 There is no corresponding record for this reference. Hazardous chemicals in building and construction plastics can lead to health risks due to indoor exposure and may contaminate recycled materials.
- Is Plasticized PVC a health hazard?
- Health Impacts and Epidemiological Evidence Exposure to plasticized PVC, whether from indoor PVC floorings or during production and recycling, has a strong link to plasticizer concentrations in biological tissues.
