Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
Bio-based plasticizers Vegetable oil-based plasticizers Vegetable oils such as soybean oil, peanut oil, castor oil, tung oil, palm oil and so on which are generally extracted from plant seeds and germ, are widely distributed in nature [ 26 ]. The main components of vegetable oil are straight-chain higher fatty acids and glycerides [ 27, 28, 29 ].
Hanwha Solutions' phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH offers
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).

Developments of biobased plasticizers for compostable
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...
- Can bio-based plasticizers replace phthalate plasticizer?
- Researchers have prepared a series of eco-friendly plasticizers with new structures by esterification, etherification, and epoxidation of bio-based raw materials, many of which have the potential to replace traditional phthalate plasticizers [23, 24, 25].
- Why are phthalate plasticizers becoming bioplasticizers?
- Owing to health concerns, depletion of crude resources and other factors, there is a gradual drift from traditional phthalate plasticizers to bioplasticizers in the plastic industry. Bioplasticizers are derived mainly from biomass sources including agricultural products, it’s by-products and waste.
- Are natural resource-based plasticizers better than phthalates in PVC production?
- Recently, there has been an increased consciousness of the use of natural resource-based plasticizers instead of phthalates in PVC production, because they are eco-friendly in nature.
- What are natural biodegradable plasticizers?
- Natural biodegradable plasticizers can be isolated from the agro products and litters that are cost-effective, sustainable, and huge abundant. Several natural plasticizers originate from agricultural products like trees, oleaginous plants, cereals, vegetables, and fruits, as well as their waste .
- Can bio-based plasticizers be made from biomass?
- Broadly speaking, there may be more suitable biomass renewable raw materials that can be used to prepare bio-based plasticizers, which still need to be explored and discovered by researchers in the future.
- 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.
