Synergistic Effect of Two Plasticizers on Thermal Stability
The effect of different plasticizers on thermal stability, transparency, and migration resistance of the PVC stabilized with zinc arginine [Zn(Arg) 2] was investigated.The thermal stability, migration resistance, and transparency of PVC with tributyl citrate (TBC) were better than PVC with dioctyl phthalate (DOP) characterized by oven aging method, migration test, and near infrared-visible
Current Status of Plasticizer Research | SpringerLink
After several tens of years, the plasticizer industry in China has grown to a relatively large scale. Currently, China has the largest plasticizer production and consumption in Asia, with a capacity of 2.2 million tons, an actual volume of 1.3 million tons, and an apparent consumption of 1.7 million tons.
Synergistic Effect of Two Plasticizers on Thermal Stability
The thermal stability, migration resistance, and transparency of PVC with tributyl citrate (TBC) were better than PVC with dioctyl phthalate (DOP) characterized by oven aging method, migration test, and near infrared-visible-ultraviolet spectrophotometer.
Tributyl citrate oligomers as plasticizers for poly (lactic
Aging of the 20 wt% TbC-3 film in the same manner generated further phase separation but also forced the plasticizer to migrate to the film surface. Thus the morphological stability of the PLA/TbC-3 blends was better when the plasticizer concentration was reasonably low.
Effect of TBC Plasticization on Thin Polycarbonate Sheet
Here, we ultimately chose TBC as PC plasticizer based on two reasons: the most important reason is that plasticizer TBC is a less-toxic plasticizers and it is environmental friendly, and the other essential reason is the match of the solubility parameters of TBC and PC that may bring good compatibility between PC and TBC.
- Is tributyl citrate a good plasticizer for polylactide and polyhydroxybutyrate?
- The effectiveness of tributyl citrate (TbC) as plasticizer for polylactide (PLLA) and poly (hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) was analyzed in order to improve the ductility of these polymers and make them good candidates for food packaging applications.
- Is TBC a phthalate plasticizer?
- ... In addition to DOIP, TBC is another non-phthalate plasticizer that was identified in two vinyl glove samples. TBC has been reported to be a safer alternative to phthalates and biocompatible plasticizers [58, 59].
- Is plasticization of PLA necessary?
- The polymer is of interest for production of films for packaging applications. However, plasticization of PLA is required in order to obtain films with sufficient flexibility. PLA was blended with tributyl citrate (TbC) and two oligomers of TbC that were synthesized by transesterification of tributyl citrate (TbC) and diethylene glycol (DEG).
- Is TG a function of plasticizer content?
- Tg as a function of plasticizer content for blends of PLA with TbC, TbC-3 and TbC-7. The effects of blending PLA with TbC and TbC-3 can be compared with the results from a study where PLA was plasticized with PEG.
- Does plasticizer tributyl citrate increase moisture permeability?
- Jost et al. (2014) studied the WVP as a function of the plasticizer type and concentration in the alginate cast films. Chaos et al. (2019) found that adding the plasticizer tributyl citrate would increase the moisture permeability of polylactide and polyhydroxy butyrate films.
- What is tributyl citrate (TBC) and diethylene glycol (DEG)?
- PLA was blended with tributyl citrate (TbC) and two oligomers of TbC that were synthesized by transesterification of tributyl citrate (TbC) and diethylene glycol (DEG). Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to investigate the dynamic mechanical and thermal properties of the blends.
