Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate
Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate Plasticizers) POLYCIZER, MONOCIZER Functional Products Awareness is increasing regarding the environment and the safety of plasticizers and a response is being demanded in raw materials as well.
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).
Combining Renewable Eleostearic Acid and Eugenol
In this study, two kinds of sustainable plasticizers (eleostearic acid eugenol ester (EAEE) and epoxidized EAEE) were synthesized to plasticize PVC films using eleostearic acid and eugenol. Compared to EAEE, PVC plasticized with epoxidized EAEE showed more flexible and thermal stability.

- 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.
- Is Hanwha a phthalate-free plasticizer?
- South Korean petrochemicals producer Hanwha Chemical Corp has announced the commercial launch of a new, premium phthalate-free plasticizer.
- 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.
- 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.
- How much is the eco-friendly plasticizers market worth?
- The annual value of the eco-friendly plasticizers market is estimated at $1.3 billion currently (or nearly a fifth of the total plasticizers market) and the sector is growing at a rate of more than 6% annually.
- 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.
