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),...
Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
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]. On the other hand, these new bio-based plasticizers can also ameliorate mechanical and
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...

Phthalate esters, based on phthalic acid, are the main types of plasticizers used since they satisfy a broad range of processing and performance requirements, as well as a large number of markets.
An Overview Application of Natural Oil as a Sustainable
Although there is a query on possibility of toxic effect on plasticizers especially phthalates on human health, there is a diversification to alternate type of plasticizers with low migration levels and low toxicity. Therefore, eco-friendly or natural-based plasticizers are being sought for and applications are being studied (Abioye et al., 2025).
- Where is phthalate-free plasticizer eco-dehch produced?
- Hanwha Solutions’ Chemical Division announced that it quadrupled annual production of phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH. Up to 6.5 tons of it will be produced every year at a petrochemical industrial complex in the southeastern port city of Ulsan, South Korea.
- Are phthalate plasticizers safe?
- However, the phthalate content in plasticizer is known to be toxic to humans. Therefore, its use is prohibited in wallpapers, flooring materials, toys and many other products. Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) plasticizers are used as an alternative, but done so at the expense of product quality.
- 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.
- How does eco-dehch remove phthalate-inducing material?
- Adding hydrogen to DOTP plasticizer, Eco-DEHCH manages to remove phthalate-inducing material from its chemical structure altogether. Only a few industrial leaders acquire the hydrogen-added mixture technology, also known as hydrogenation.
- Will Hanwha halt production of phthalate-based plasticizer DOP in 2022?
- Given the growing need for observing the ESG mandate around the world, Hanwha Solutions' Chemical Division is seeking to completely halt its production of phthalate-based plasticizer DOP within 2022.
- Is eco-dehch a safe plasticizer?
- Therefore, its use is prohibited in wallpapers, flooring materials, toys and many other products. Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) plasticizers are used as an alternative, but done so at the expense of product quality. The new eco-friendly plasticizer ECO-DEHCH from Hanwha, however, is not short on quality and it is safe for humans.
