Developments of biobased plasticizers
The development and utilization of biobased plasticizers derived from epoxidized soybean oil, castor oil, cardanol, citrate, and isosorbide have been broadly investigated. The synthesis of...
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly Bioplasticizers
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...
Environmentally friendly plasticizers for poly (vinyl chloride
The efficient synthesis of curcumin-diesters, which serve as green plasticizers for poly (vinyl) chloride (PVC), is reported. The plasticizers lower the glass transition temperature of PVC, and their Expand
Effective, Environmentally Friendly PVC Plasticizers Based on Succinic Acid
The development of environmentally friendly polymer additives (bioplasticizers) is driving the plasticizers market due to the increasing demand for eco-friendly products and provides safety for human health and the environment [16]. The global bioplasticizer market was valued at USD 1364 million in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 1709 million
Application of Different Vegetable Oils as Processing Aids
(1) The use of processing oils or plasticizers is by far the most effective way to enhance the interaction between the rubber and filler by increasing the compatibility. (2) Petroleum oils with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are generated via the petroleum refining process.
- Are green bio-based plasticizers effective?
- Therefore, the green bio-based plasticizers with excellent migration resistance and cold resistance are provided with broad application prospects. One of the feasible ways to solve the above problems is to take advantage of natural resources as ingredient to develop renewable non-toxic plasticizers.
- Which plasticizer is best for food contact?
- (31−36)Among them, citrate ester-based plasticizers are widely used because of their good miscibility with the PLA and their biocompatibility, ideal for food contact applications. (32,34,37)Specifically, to improve the mechanical properties of the PLA, TEC, a nontoxic, eco-friendly, and natural plasticizer, has been widely used. (37−42)
- Which plasticizer is used to improve the mechanical properties of PLA?
- (32,34,37)Specifically, to improve the mechanical properties of the PLA, TEC, a nontoxic, eco-friendly, and natural plasticizer, has been widely used. (37−42) In recent years, natural cellulosic fibers have been combined with polymers for the production of low-cost and high-performance materials.
- Which plasticizers can be used in food packaging?
- (10,30)Additionally, to form highly flexible materials with ideal properties for food packaging, PLA and PLA blends have been combined with numerous plasticizers such as poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), polyethylene glycol (PEG), triethyl citrate (TEC), tributyl citrate (TBC), acetyl-tributyl citrate (TBAC), or epoxidized vegetable oils.
- Can glycerol be used as a plasticizer for biodegradable films?
- (Elsevier Ltd.) Biodegradable films were produced from blends contained a high amt. of thermoplastic starch (TPS) and poly(lactic acid) (PLA) plasticized with different adipate or citrate esters. It was not possible to obtain pellets for the prodn. of films using only glycerol as a plasticizer.
- Are plasticizers effective in reducing glass transition temp & melting temp?
- The thermal and mech. properties of plasticized polymers were investigated by means of dynamic mech. anal. and differential scanning calorimetry. At. force microscopy (AFM) was used to analyze the morphologies of the blends. Multiple plasticizers were effective in lowering the glass transition temp. (Tg) and the melting temp. (Tm) of PLA.
