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...
Hanwha Solutions' phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH offers answer to
Eco-DEHCH is one of the most recognized phthalate-free plasticizer developed by a research team at Hanwha Solutions’ Chemical Division, providing eco-friendly alternative for hazardous dioctyl phthalate (DOP) and less-harmful but less-effective terephthalate like dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP).
Effective, Environmentally Friendly PVC Plasticizers Based on
Four environmentally friendly plasticizer samples were obtained; their chemical structures and compositions were confirmed by gas chromatography (GC) and infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analyses, and their physicochemical properties and thermal stability (TGA analysis) were investigated.
Plasticizers Derived from Biomass Resources: A Short Review
The development of environmentally-friendly non-toxic plasticizers and biodegradable bio-based plasticizers to replace phthalates has been a research hot spot. Non-toxic green plasticizers with high performance, oil resistance, extraction and migration resistance used in electrical insulation, food packaging, and medical and health products are constantly being developed, produced and applied.
Nonphthalate Plasticizers in House Dust from Multiple Countries: An
Along with the restrictions of phthalate esters (PAEs), a variety of nonphthalate plasticizers (NPPs) have been increasingly used for industrial needs. Knowledge remains limited on the environmental occurrences, fate, and human exposure risks of many emerging NPPs. In this study, we investigated a suite of 45 NPPs along with the major PAEs in house dust from five regions in the Asia-Pacific
- Can Epoxidized vegetable oils replace phthalate esters?
- According to the researches in the last 18 years, epoxidized vegetable oils are one of the alternatives that are strongly encouraged to substitute phthalate esters since they were proven to be valid in various applications, eco-friendly and sustainable resource.
- Can fatty acid esters replace PVC plasticizers?
- This research study will help in the replacement of traditional PVC plasticizers such as citrates and phthalates with fatty acid esters, a green plasticizer that lacks a benzene ring. The main synthetic route is shown in Fig. 1.
- What is the use of phthalate esters in polymer formulation?
- Phthalate esters are commonly used as plasticizer in polymer formulation; in particular for poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) formulation.
- Can plasticizer replace phthalate plasticizer?
- Plasticizer synthesized from fatty acid may entirely replace the phthalate plasticizer (dioctyl phthalate, DOP). The overall performance of plasticized PVC sheets with synthetic plasticizers was comparable to the DOP.
- Can bio-based plasticizers be synthesized by epoxidizing erucic acid fatty acid methyl ester?
- In this study, a bio plasticizer was synthesized by epoxidizing erucic acid fatty acid methyl ester. The final product was compared to a conventional plasticizer. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) was used to confirm the structures of bio-based plasticizers (1 H NMR).
- What is plasticizer phthalate based?
- Plasticizer is a chemical substance capable of making plastics softer, and phthalate is one of the most common materials to achieve it. However, phthalate-based plasticizer has often been blamed for disrupting the hormone system and thus been restricted from toys and furniture.
