Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
Abstract 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. Owing to the negative impact of petroleum-based plasticizers on human health
Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate
Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate Plasticizers) POLYCIZER, MONOCIZER Functional Products Awareness is increasing regarding the environment and the safety of plasticizers and a response is being demanded in raw materials as well.
Effective, Environmentally Friendly PVC Plasticizers Based on
REACH Act prohibits the use of phthalic plasticizers in PVC products, such as children’s toys, food packaging or medical devices, which limits the growth of this type of plasticizer market [12,13]. The use of non-toxic and biodegradable alternatives to replace phthalates has become an inevitable trend [14,15].

Effective, Environmentally Friendly PVC Plasticizers
Four environmentally friendly plasticizer samples were obtained; their chemical structures and compositions were confirmed by gas chromatography (GC) and infrared spectroscopy (FT–IR) analyses,...
- 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.
- Are bio-based plasticizers a good choice for PVC products?
- Utilizing biobased plasticizers enhances the eco-friendliness of PVC products while retaining the necessary performance characteristics. Furthermore, they often undergo a different metabolic pathway, potentially reducing toxicity concerns.
- How do plasticizers affect the performance of PVC products?
- Plasticizers influence the flexibility, workability, and durability of PVC products. Choosing the right type of plasticizer can enhance the performance characteristics of PVC while also addressing environmental and health concerns.
- What are the different types of plasticizers?
- Plasticizers can be divided into several categories, including phthalate, non-phthalate, and biobased plasticizers. This categorization impacts their efficacy and regulatory compliance. The choice of plasticizer can influence the final properties of PVC, such as flexibility, tensile strength, and resistance to cracking.
- 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.
- Which plasticizers are used for soft PVC?
- Mechanical properties and migration resistance were determined for soft PVC with the use of three concentrations of plasticizers (40 PHR, 50 PHR, and 60 PHR).
