The synthesis of these covalent plasticizers is expected to be scalable, providing a viable alternative to the use of phthalates, thus mitigating dangers to human health and the environment. Copper-free azide-alkyne click chemistry is utilized to covalently modify polyvinyl chloride(PVC).

The synthesis of these covalent plasticizers is expected to be scalable, providing a viable alternative to the use of phthalates, thus mitigating dangers to human health and the environment. Covalently attached mimics of conventional phthalate plastacizers are synthesized on modified PVC by simple and scalable chemistry.

Triazole Analogues of Phthalate Plasticizers covalently linked to PVC Traditional plasticizers are mixed with granular PVC and melted into a matrix of PVC and other additives, from which building materials, clothes, food packaging, and medical supplies (ex. blood bags) are produced.
