A Strategy for Nonmigrating Highly Plasticized PVC - Nature
DOP-O-CP52 has almost the same plasticizing efficiency as DOP within the ratio range (from 0 to 0.3) of plasticizer to PVC, which indicated the novel DOP-like plasticizer could have the same...
Recent Developments of Biobased Plasticizers and Their Effect
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. This review paper covers the utilization of traditional and biobased plasticizers for PVC plasticization, and their effect on environmental, mechanical, and
Effect of Green Plasticizer on the Performance
In this study, we present the development of eco-friendly biocomposites composed of polylactic acid (PLA) and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), using melt extrusion and compression molding processes. In all the studied samples, the PLA/MCC ratio was always 1:1, whereas the plasticizer triethyl citrate (TEC) was responsible for the improved dispersion of the MCC in PLA. Tensile tests proved
Chemistry can help make plastics sustainable — but it isn’t
It could be a part of the solution to making plastics use less harmful. But chemistry alone can take us only so far. If the burning of plastics and the accumulation of the materials in oceans and
Environmental Initiatives | ESG (Environment, Social
Based on the idea that eco-friendly vehicles contribute to the environment only when they come into widespread use, Toyota will continue to respond to the needs of each country and region, including China, and provide a wide range of available options to achieve carbon neutrality.
