Role of Plasticizers in PVC Products | Bausano
A plasticizer is a substance, liquid or solid, incorporated in a polymer to increase its flexibility, workability or distensibility. A plasticizer reduces melt viscosity during processing. In PVC products, the glass transition temperature (Tg) and elastic modulus of PVC are also reduced. Liquids are usually called “plasticizers”, whereas
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
Citrate plasticizers have good miscibility, biodegradable, resistant to leaching and water and have legal use as additives. The demand for bioplasticizers is reported to increase from 887...

An effective plasticizer molecule for PVC has two types of structural components – 1. Polar component, and 2. Non polar component. The polar component of the molecule must be able to bind...
Everything You Need To Know About PVC Plastic
Industries such as plumbing, sewage, and agriculture can utilize rigid PVC across many functions. Flexible, plasticized, or regular PVC is softer and more amenable to bending than uPVC due to the addition of plasticizers like phthalates (e.g., diisononyl phthalate or DINP).
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
Owing to health concerns, depletion of crude resources and other factors, there is a gradual drift from traditional phthalate plasticizers to bioplasticizers in the plastic industry. Bioplasticizers are derived mainly from biomass sources including agricultural products, its by-products and waste.
