Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate
This page is DIC (formerly Dainippon Ink and Chemicals) 'Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate Plasticizers)'. DIC is working to develop plasticizers (non-phthalate) that accommodate usage restrictions for Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals and food utensils, containers and packaging, and toys. Examples of major applications and representative product numbers of non-phthalate
Lactide-derived ester oligomers for highly compatible poly
Interesting elastomeric behaviors were observed and then evidenced by stress relaxation moduli (2.4–9.8 MPa) and small residual strains (7–17%) after recovery tests, respectively. These results suggest that the ALO series can be practical “double green” and “dual performance” plasticizers for PLA.
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
A novel environmental soybean oil‐based plasticizer, epoxidized glycidyl ester of soybean oil fatty acids (EGESOFa), was synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR),...

In addition to improving the performance of your formulated polyurethane, EMEROX Ester Plasticizers have high bio-based content to help you achieve your sustainability objectives. The Eco-Friendly Polyols business will be showcasing its EMEROX Ester Plasticizers at the Coatings Trends & Technology 2025 virtual event taking place September 8-11.
Superplasticizer: Types, Advantages & Disadvantages
Superplasticizers (SPs) are also known as high- range water reducers that are additive used in making high strength concrete. Plasticizers are chemical compounds that enable the production of concrete with approximately 15% less water content. Superplasticizers allow a 30% or more reduction in water content.
- Can waste oil be used as a plasticizer?
- Very recently, researchers in our group elaborated a new plasticizer using waste oil as raw material. Liu et al. used waste cooking oil and malic acid as feedstock, and successfully developed an efficient bio-based plasticizer (acetylated-fatty acid methyl ester-malic acid ester, AC-FAME-MAE) for PVC by eco-friendly methods.
- Are biobased plasticizers safe?
- Biobased plasticizers, (66−68) such as soyabean oil, castor oil (as examples provide in previous paragraph), cardanol, and isosorbide, can provide safe alternatives based on their hypotoxicity, renewability, degradability, and plasticizing performances. (68) Preventing regrettable substitutions is a considerable challenge for scientists globally.
- Are there alternative plasticizers?
- There are a considerable number of alternative plasticizers in employment, without any toxicological data available (dibutyl adipate, diethylene glycol dibenzoate, and bis-2-ethylhexyl sebacate, to name a few).
- Which vegetable oils can be used to make bio-based plasticizers?
- In addition to the above-mentioned biomass raw materials, there are other vegetable oils used by researchers to prepare novel bio-based plasticizers, such as sunflower oil [19, 56], jatropha oil , cottonseed oil , rubber seed oil and palm oil , which also has broad prospects.
- Are cooking oil-based plasticizers a good choice?
- The waste cooking oil-based plasticizers developed have acceptable plasticizing performance, so it is worthy of continued application and development. Lactic acid is a renewable biomass resource with exceptional biocompatibility. It is non-toxic to the human and can be directly metabolized in the body.
- Are oligomeric isosorbide esters a renewable resource plasticizer for PVC?
- Yin B, Hakkarainen M (2011) Oligomeric Isosorbide Esters as alternative renewable resource plasticizers for PVC. J Appl Polym Sci 119:2400–2407 Adhikari B, Chaudhary DS, Clerfeuille E (2010) Effect of plasticizers on the moisture migration behavior of low-amylose starch films during drying.
