Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
Plasticizers are chemical additives added into polymers to influence desirable mechanical properties such as processability and ductility. These properties are a result of the association of...
Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
On the other hand, these new bio-based plasticizers can also ameliorate mechanical and thermal properties of PVC like traditional plasticizers, and are eco-friendly, low priori toxic and resistant to migration. Thus, preparing high performance bio-based plasticizers will still be a research hotspot in this field for a long time.
Natural-based plasticizers and biopolymer films: A review
Natural plasticizers used in biodegradable films from biomass products (polysaccharide-, protein-, and lipid-based films) or other films obtained by extraction of micro-organisms. Refs. Soybean oil (SO), epoxidized soybean oil (ESO), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and triethyl citrate (TEC) 6.1.
An efficient cold-resistant strategy: Synthesis and
CDD and ODD were epoxidized to obtain the plasticizers, employing environmentally friendly hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant, and water was obtained as the only byproduct. First, CDD (100 g) and strong acid cation exchange resin (10 g, 10% of mass of CDD) were mixed in a three-necked flask equipped with a thermometer, a reflux condenser and a

phthalate base plasticizers and the need for eco-friendly bio- ... plasticizers, mechanism of action in plasticization, types of plasticizer and its application areas. We will also discuss
- 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 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.
- Are plasticizers biodegradable?
- Plasticizers are additives used to ensure flexibility to polymer blends and thereby to increase their processability. As the typical plastic component phthalates and other fossil-based components contribute environmental issues since such compounds are not biodegradable.
- Does sustainable plasticizer affect thermal stability of plasticized polyvinyl chlorid (PVC) materials?
- The recent studies on sustainable plasticizer mainly focus on raw material source, synthesis method and plasticization, but the effect of chemical functional groups (epoxy group and ester group) of sustainable plasticizer on compatibility and thermal stability of plasticized polyvinyl chlorid (PVC) materials has been ignored.
- Is linoleic acid a bio-based plasticizer?
- In this study, an eco-friendly bio-based plasticizer, ALCE with excellent migration resistance was synthesized using linoleic acid (LA) and cinnamyl alcohol (CA) from biomass. The composition of ALCE was characterized and confirmed using FTIR and 1 H NMR.
- What are green nanocomposites made of?
- (American Chemical Society) "Green" nanocomposites were successfully fabricated from cellulose acetate (CA) powder, eco-friendly tri-Et citrate (TEC) plasticizer and organically modified clay. The effect of the amt. of plasticizer varying from 15-40% on the performance of the nanocomposites was evaluated.
