Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
Many bio-based PVC plasticizers, such as vegetable oil-based plasticizers, cardanol-based plasticizers, lactic acid-based plasticizers, waste cooking oil-based plasticizers, polyester plasticizers, hyperbranched plasticizers and so on, have been extensively studied.

Bio-Based, Phthalate-Free Polyvinyl Chloride Plasticizer
A phthalate-free PVC plasticizer based on vegetable oils can be manufactured using a single reactor synthesis which drastically lowers complexity. Due to the low price of the feedstock, the plasticizer can be manufactured at the same price with similar performance compared to the most commonly used, banned phthalate, dioctyl pthalate.
Plasticizers: POLYSORB ID, plant-based solutions
POLYSORB ID - isosorbide diester. POLYSORB ID can be used to make diesters obtained from esterification of isosorbide with plant-based fatty acids. It offers outstanding compatibility and processability with PVC resins. Due to its great efficiency, it can be considered as an alternative of choice to standard petrochemical-based plasticizers.
- Are bio-based plasticizers for polylactic acid sustainable?
- Research on bio-based plasticizers for polylactic acid (PLA), an environmentally friendly and biodegradable polyester, has advanced due to the increasing focus on sustainable materials.
- What are natural based plasticizers?
- Nowadays, there is increasing interest in the use of natural-based plasticizers that are characterized by low toxicity and low migration. This group includes epoxidized triglyceride vegetable oils from soybean oil, linseed oil, castor-oil, sunflower oil, and fatty acid esters (FAEs) .
- What are biodegradable plasticizers?
- Biodegradable plasticizers such as soybean oil (SO), epoxidized soybean oil (ESO), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and triethyl citrate (TEC) were added to poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) films, enhancing their thermal and mechanical properties. TEC or DBP presented better plasticizing effects than SO and ESO for PHBV .
- Can bio-based plasticizers replace conventional plastic goods?
- The challenge to implement this new class of natural-based plasticizers matches the increasing interest of material researchers and industries in new bio-based materials, made from renewable resources with the potential, not to totally replace but to reduce the use of conventional plastic goods.
- What is a bio-based plasticizer for PLA?
- Common bio-based plasticizers for PLA on the market today include acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), tributyl citrate (TBC), and polyethylene glycol (PEG). Among these, the Tg of PLA plasticized with 20 wt% TBC was found to decrease to 17.6 °C, while the elongation at break increased by a factor of 50.
- Are bio-based plasticizers safe?
- Assessing environmental impacts and health risks associated with bio-based plasticizers will become increasingly important for ensuring safety. In summary, the current state of bio-based plasticizers in PLA applications reflects rapid development and significant growth prospects.
