Diverging trends of plasticizers (phthalates and non
Background European chemicals management aims to protect human health and the environment from legacy and emerging contaminants. The plasticizer market changed in response to the restriction of low molecular weight (LMW) phthalate plasticizers such as Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) due to their hazardous properties. We investigated patterns and trends of 19 regulated and emerging
Global Plasticizers (Low Phthalates, High Phthalates, and Non
The global plasticizers market is projected to grow from USD 3.57 billion in 2025 to USD X.XX billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.9%. Plasticizers are used for imparting plasticity or flexibility and stability to various materials such as plastics, rubbers, paints, adhesives, and elastomers.
Plasticizers - Chemical Economics Handbook (CEH) | S&P Global
Overall, global plasticizer consumption will grow at a rate of about 3.5% per year in the next few years. Phthalate esters, based on phthalic acid, are the main types of plasticizers used since they satisfy a broad range of processing and performance requirements, as well as a large number of markets.

- How many phthalates are there in indoor plasticizers?
- The global occurrence and concentrations of indoor plasticizers were reviewed. Widely reported 10 phthalates and 14 alternative plasticizers were investigated. Indoor plasticizers in 4 phases were discussed across multiple dimensions. Mass transfer and partition of plasticizer were analyzed for all indoor interfaces.
- Are phthalates and alternative plasticizers present in indoor environments?
- Consequently, plasticizers are widely present in the gas, airborne particle, and dust phases within indoor environments. Numerous field studies have been conducted to determine the indoor concentrations of phthalates and alternative plasticizers quantitatively.
- Why are phthalate-based products becoming less popular?
- The results indicate that the concentrations of phthalates in various continents have shown a significant downward trend over time to varying degrees. This phenomenon suggests that the use of phthalate-based products has gradually decreased in recent decades, likely due to increased public awareness of these chemicals.
- Are alternative plasticizers more dangerous than phthalates?
- In contrast to phthalates, alternative plasticizers were reported less frequently and had lower dust-phase concentrations , . DINCH and DEHT were the top two alternative plasticizers of concern due to their high detection rates (see the dust sheet of Supplementary Material B for details).
- Why do alternative plasticizers have lower dust-phase concentrations than phthalates?
- The lower dust-phase concentrations of alternative plasticizers compared to phthalates may be attributed to their larger molecular weight , , . As listed in Table 1, alternative plasticizers generally have larger molecular weights, which correspond to lower vapor pressures and lower y0 on source surfaces.
- Do gaseous plasticizers absorb phthalates?
- Gaseous plasticizers tend to adsorb on the surface of impermeable materials and absorb into permeable materials. Both sorption behaviors have been extensively studied by researchers to experimentally determine the Ksur,im and Ksur,p parameters for phthalates.
