Innovations in applications and prospects of bioplastics and
Non-biodegradable plastics are continually amassing landfills and oceans worldwide while creating severe environmental issues and hazards to animal and human health. Plastic pollution has resulted in the death of millions of seabirds and aquatic animals. The worldwide production of plastics in 2025 has increased by 36% since 2010. This has generated significant interest in bioplastics to
Progress in bio-based plastics and plasticizing modifications
This review introduces the most common bio-based plastics and provides an overview of recent advances in the selection and use of plasticizers, and their effect on the performance of these materials. In addition to plasticizers, we also present a perspective of other emerging techniques of improving the overall performance of bio-based plastics.

Synthesis and properties of a bio-based PVC plasticizer
A novel green plasticizer, acetylated lactic acid 1,6-hexane diester (ALHD), was successfully synthesized based on l-lactic acid, a renewable organic acid from corn starch. Its chemical structure was characterized using FTIR, 1H NMR and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrom
