[PDF] A Study on the Use of Castor Oil as Plasticizer in Natural Rubber
Progress in Rubber Plastics and Recycling Technology Mechanical properties and thermal degradation of natural rubber compounds containing castor oil were studied to evaluate its suitability as plasticizer. Naphthenic oil was used as a reference plasticizer.
A Study on the Use of Castor Oil as Plasticizer in Natural Rubber
Mechanical properties and thermal degradation of natural rubber compounds containing castor oil were studied to evaluate its suitability as plasticizer. Naphthenic oil was used as a reference plasticizer. The cure time was marginally lower in the case of castor oil mixes, probably due to the presence of free fatty acids in it.

Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
Recent studies indicated that castor oil-based plasticizers may be promising substitute of petroleum-based plasticizers considering human health and environment. Soybean oil-based plasticizers Soybean oil (SO) is a renewable, inexpensive and common agricultural resource, with unique molecular structure, containing three ester groups, five double bonds and long alkyl chains.
- Can maleated castor oil be used as plasticizer on natural rubber?
- Abstract. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of maleated castor oil (MACO) as plasticizer on natural rubber (NR), ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), and nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR). The parameter studied were involving rheological, curing and swelling properties.
- Can castor oil be used as a plasticizer for poly(vinyl chloride)?
- Chemically modified (e.g., epoxidized) and unmodified vegetable oils are used as plasticizers for poly (vinyl chloride) , and natural rubber . The selection of castor oil was based on that it was expected to lower the T g of PMMA by accommodating within the polymer network, thereby reducing intermolecular interactions and cohesion .
- Why is castor oil a good plasticizer?
- The hydroxyl in castor oil molecule can undergo esterification to obtain more polar groups to improve its compatibility with polar materials such as PVC and NBR. Therefore, when compared to other vegetable oils, castor oil has more application potential in the plasticizer field.
- Can castor oil based plasticizers plasticize NBR?
- There are several studies on the plasticization of PVC with castor oil-based plasticizers [18, 19, 20], but very few on NBR. In this study, five environmentally friendly castor oil-based plasticizers were prepared through simple esterification and epoxidation reactions, and used to plasticize NBR.
- Are castor oil-based plasticizers better than dioctyl phthalate?
- A series of new environment-friendly plasticizers was synthesized from castor oil and used to plasticize nitrile rubber (NBR). The test results showed that tensile strength, elongation at break, and tear strength of NBR vulcanizates plasticized by castor oil-based plasticizers were found to be better than that of dioctyl phthalate (DOP).
- Can castor oil-based Plasticizers improve the aging resistance of NBR vulcanizates?
- The aging test taken demonstrated that the castor oil-based plasticizers could improve the hot air and oil aging resistance of NBR vulcanizates.
