Hanwha Solutions' phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH offers answer to
Eco-DEHCH is one of the most recognized phthalate-free plasticizer developed by a research team at Hanwha Solutions’ Chemical Division, providing eco-friendly alternative for hazardous dioctyl phthalate (DOP) and less-harmful but less-effective terephthalate like dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP).
A Strategy for Nonmigrating Highly Plasticized PVC
Nonmigrating highly plasticized PVC was prepared based on a new compound that acts as a plasticizer that was derived from di (2-ethylhexyl) 4-hydrophthalate and chlorinated paraffin-52. The...
Eastman Renew Plasticizers | Sustainability Without Compromise
Henry Li will discuss Eastman's Renew plasticizer sustainable solutions May 11 at the PVC Conference by iOM3. Eastman is a sponsor of the conference, which runs May 10–12. "Eastman is just getting started with sustainable plasticizers," said Li, market development manager of plasticizers technology. "We're creating a wide range of

- Are phthalate-free Plasticizer-based PVC gels safe?
- Phthalate-based plasticizers, which are commonly used for polyvinyl chloride (PVC), exhibit toxic effects on both the environment and human health, leading to the exploration of phthalate-free alternatives. In this study, phthalate-free plasticizer-based PVC (Pf-PVC) gels were developed.
- Are plasticizers phthalate-free?
- nyl phthalate (DINP).Key FindingsHBN identified six phthalate-free plasticizer types, three synthetic and three bio-based, in use i ommercial PVC building products. The available data suggest that non-phthalate plasticizers present fewer hu
- Which phthalate based plasticizers are used in the PVC industry?
- Among the traditional plasticizers, phthalate-based plasticizers, such as dibutyl phthalate (DBP), bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), di-iso-nonyl phthalate (DINP), and di-n-octyl phthalate (DNOP), account for more than 90 % of their usage in the PVC industry.
- Are PF-PVC gels phthalate-free?
- Phthalate-free plasticizer-based polyvinyl chloride (Pf-PVC) gels were developed. Pf-PVC gels exhibited excellent transparency (T ≈ 95.4 % at 550 nm). Pf-PVC gels showed improved flexibility especially under a lower electric field. Pf-PVC gel microlens demonstrated electrical-tunable focus length (5–29.3 mm).
- Are phthalate plasticizers covalently bound to PVC?
