Biodegradability of cellulose acetate｜Daicel corporation
2. Biodegradability of cellulose acetate. Cellulose acetate is highly biodegradable in soil and seawater. [1-4] Generally speaking, cellulose acetate is degraded into cellulose and acetic acid through hydrolysis with water and biodegradation by esterase. Subsequently, the main chain of cellulose is biodegraded (cleaved/decomposed) by cellulase
- What are phthalate plasticizers?
- Phthalate plasticizers offer exceptional compatibility and resistance to volatility and cold. SANSO CIZER DOP and DINP are examples of general-purpose phthalates. SANSO CIZER DOP (Di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate, DEHP) is a phthalate produced by the esterification of phthalic anhydride with 2-ethylhexanol (eight-carbon alcohol).
- What are phthalate esters?
- As such, phthalate esters (PEs) have been the most prominent plasticizers in consumer goods, personal care products, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics and industrial applications ( Wormuth et al., 2006; Koch et al., 2009 ).
