Recent Developments of Biobased Plasticizers and Their Effect
Plasticized poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) has been extensively utilized globally, with various applications in construction, piping, wiring and cable, installation, flooring, nonfood packing, windows, doors, and more.
Bio-Based Plasticizers for Polyvinylchloride (PVC) | SpringerLink
Polyvinylchloride (PVC) is a thermoplastic polymer widely used in large applications due to the excellent balance between cost and properties. Due to the environmental and human health concerns of consumption of petrochemical-based plasticizers, the use of bio-based plasticizers has been increasing. The new blends of PVC made with green

Developments of biobased plasticizers for compostable
The development and utilization of biobased plasticizers derived from epoxidized soybean oil, castor oil, cardanol, citrate, and isosorbide have been broadly investigated. The synthesis of...
- Are plasticizers environmentally friendly?
- Four environmentally friendly plasticizer samples were obtained; their chemical structures and compositions were confirmed by gas chromatography (GC) and infrared spectroscopy (FT–IR) analyses, and their physicochemical properties and thermal stability (TGA analysis) were investigated.
- What is plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC)?
- Plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has been widely used in the world. Petroleum-based plasticizers especially phthalates have been the most common plasticizers used in PVC. However, the global petroleum resources are becoming scarce gradually, and the hygienic requirements for plasticizers are increasing.
- Are bio-plasticizers a sustainable alternative to traditional plasticizers?
- Bio-Plasticizers, eco-friendly alternatives to traditional plasticizers, enhance PVC's properties while promoting sustainability across various industries due to health concerns.
- What are bio-based PVC plasticizers?
- Many bio-based PVC plasticizers, such as vegetable oil-based plasticizers, cardanol-based plasticizers, lactic acid-based plasticizers, waste cooking oil-based plasticizers, polyester plasticizers, hyperbranched plasticizers and so on, have been extensively studied.
- Which PVC plasticizer is best for biodegradation?
- DHS was found to be the best PVC plasticizer, which is a compromise between longer molecules favorable for plasticization and shorter molecules favorable for biodegradation.
- Can esters provide a green alternative to toxic phthalate plasticizers?
- The ester mixture that was found to be the most favorable plasticizer was characterized by good thermal and thermo-oxidative stability (5% weight loss temperature: 227.8 °C in air and 261.1 °C in nitrogen). The results of the research clearly indicate that the synthesized esters can provide a green alternative to toxic phthalate plasticizers. 1.
