Recent Developments of Biobased Plasticizers and Their Effect
Plasticized poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) has been extensively utilized globally, with various applications in construction, piping, wiring and cable, installation, flooring, nonfood packing, windows, doors, and more.
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
An Overview Application of Natural Oil as a Sustainable
Therefore, eco-friendly or natural-based plasticizers are being sought for and applications are being studied (Abioye et al., 2025). 2 Eco-friendly Plasticizers The materials used for the formation of eco-friendly plasticizers are polysaccharides, lipids, and protein compounds (Choi & Park, 2004 ).
Does that 'green' plasticizer make my PVC flexible enough
Now, scientists have examined the effect of using DEHHP, a new eco-friendly plasticizer, used in combination with PVC. FULL STORY A study of an eco-friendly solvent helping to make PVC...
- 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 .
- Which plasticizer has a strong migration resistance?
- Hyperbranched plasticizer has strong migration resistance due to its unique structure. Lactic acid-based plasticizers are a very cutting-edge direction that requires more research and development. These bio-based plasticizers can give PVC materials excellent thermal and mechanical properties under the premise of resistance to migration.
- What are biodegradable thermoplastics & plasticizers?
- To overcome these problems, researchers began to focus on biodegradable thermoplastics and plasticizers. Plasticizers is a highly branched polysaccharide stored in plants as an alternative to currently used non-biodegradable plasticizing compounds.
- Why are biodegradable plasticizers important?
- Leachable plasticizers made of petroleum are causing growing environmental and health concerns because they are so dangerous to the environment. Therefore, searching for novel biodegradable plasticizers is of increasing interest of researchers across different domains. So, there is a need to develop bio-based plasticizers from natural sources.
- Can cyclohexanedicarboxylates be substituted for phthalate plasticizers?
- 1,2-Cyclohexanedicarboxylates are one of the most commonly used plasticizers in the PVC industry, which are also widely regarded as a suitable substitute for phthalate plasticizers. Hu et al. developed an alternative three-step route for the production of 1,2-cyclohexanedicarboxylates using diacetone alcohol and fumarates as raw materials.
- Is there a bio-based plasticizer for rubber?
- The goal of this review is to design an ultimate bio-based plasticizer for rubber that fulfills all the requirements of an efficient plasticizer and to elaborate the multidisciplinary action that how microscopic particles induce advancements in the macroscopic properties of the bulk (rubber). 2. Generalities about plasticizers
