Effect of Selected Commercial Plasticizers on Mechanical
Plasticizers reduce the tension of deformation, hardness, density, viscosity, and electrostatic charge of a polymer, and at the same time, they increase the polymer chain flexibility, resistance to fracture, and dielectric constant [ 26, 28 ].

Effect of Selected Commercial Plasticizers on Mechanical
the used plasticizers showed meaningful positive softening effects, but the diffusion of plasticizers at 110 C exposition was quite extensive. The determination of the degree of disintegration of
- Do plasticizers soften thermomechanical properties?
- The effect of the different single-component plasticizers (glycerol, propylene carbonate and ethylene carbonate) on the mechanical and dynamic thermomechanical properties of the films were studied. Moreover, the softening effect of the two-component plasticizer based on deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was addressed.
- Does humidity affect the performance of plasticizers?
- Based on the dynamic mechanical analysis at varying humidity, the performance of plasticizers was strongly attributed to the humidity. The DES based on tetrabutylammonium bromide and propylene carbonate was most efficient at providing thermoformability to the composite by lowering the thermal softening temperature.
- Can Plasticizers improve the ductility of cellulose-based biocomposites?
- The ductility of cellulose-based biocomposites can be improved by adding plasticizers. Plasticizers are commonly low molecular weight chemicals that can interfere with the hydrogen bonding ability of cellulose biocomposites, resulting in higher elongation properties.
- What are plasticizers used for?
- Plasticizers are commonly low molecular weight chemicals that can interfere with the hydrogen bonding ability of cellulose biocomposites, resulting in higher elongation properties. In addition, plasticizers can be used to convert non-thermoformable materials into thermoplastic.
- Are des a good plasticizer for cellulose-based biocomposites?
- Based on the obtained results, DESs are a highly promising plasticizers for the cellulose-based biocomposites with similar or even better plasticizing effect compared to conventional plasticizer. In addition, DESs can be used to improve the thermoformability of biocomposites, by lowering the thermal softening temperature. 1. Introduction
- Which Plasticizers improve elongation at break properties of biocomposites?
- HEC was used as a continuous matrix to introduce formability properties, whereas different plasticizers were studied to further improve the elongation at break properties of biocomposites. Glycerol, propylene carbonate and ethylene carbonate were studied as single-component plasticizers.
