Professional R&D and excellent quality plasticizer chemicals

Poly(vinyl)chloride (PVC) was plasticized using the solution casting method in which the polymer was dissolved in THF with varied compositions of plasticizer (weight ratios) that covers the 20 the typical range employed commercially. The compositions of plasticizers were: 5, 15, 25, and 35% of total sample weight.

The efficient synthesis of curcumin-diesters, which serve as green plasticizers for poly (vinyl) chloride (PVC), is reported. The plasticizers lower the glass transition temperature of PVC, and their cytotoxicity and leaching-resistance properties are significantly better than commercially used phthalate plasticizers which have several limitations.

The solvent-casting method was used to make the PVC:Cu18 plastic films at different percent weights: 5, 15, 25, and 35% of plasticizer (w/w) to PVC. PVC and the desired amount of plasticizer (total weight ~25 mg) were added to a 10 mL vial, followed by the addition of tetrahydrofuran (THF) (3 mL).
