Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
Abstract Plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has been widely used in the world. Petroleum-based plasticizers especially phthalates have been the most common plasticizers used in PVC. However, the global petroleum resources are becoming scarce gradually, and the hygienic requirements for plasticizers are increasing. Owing to the negative impact of petroleum-based plasticizers on human health
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.
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
Plasticizers are chemical additives added into polymers to influence desirable mechanical properties such as processability and ductility. These properties are a result of the association of...
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).
Synthesis and characterization of eco‐friendly poly(ε
PVC films plasticized with the SPCLs or NPCLs exhibited increased plasticizing effect, compatibility, flexibility and cold resistance. The lowest Tg value of plasticized PVC samples (PVC/NPCL1-C4) was 45.3°C, which made the plasticization efficiency reach 122.5%.
- Is polyvinyl chloride a green plastic?
- Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is widely used as a commodity plastic in various industries and daily life. However, its green development is limited due to the fact that most plasticizers are either toxic or derived from food products.
- What is plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC)?
- Plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has been widely used in the world. Petroleum-based plasticizers especially phthalates have been the most common plasticizers used in PVC. However, the global petroleum resources are becoming scarce gradually, and the hygienic requirements for plasticizers are increasing.
- Is there a bio-based plasticizer for poly (vinyl chloride)?
- Feng G, Hu L, Ma Y, Jia P, Hu Y, Zhang M, Liu C, Zhou Y (2018) An efficient bio-based plasticizer for poly (vinyl chloride) from waste cooking oil and citric acid: synthesis and evaluation in PVC films.
- Can PVC be used as an environment-friendly plasticizer?
- The perspective of using the developed material as an environment-friendly plasticizer for PVC was outlooked. Waste cooking oil (WCO), mainly generated in urban areas from high consumption of refined vegetable oils, cause serious environmental and economic problems every year [Kulkarni and Dalai, 2006].
- Is plasticizer design a good choice for PVC products?
- Ultimately, the proposed plasticizer design approach holds broad application potential, capable of meeting the stringent demands of modern PVC products for high performance, low migration, and excellent thermal stability.
- What are bio-based PVC plasticizers?
- Many bio-based PVC plasticizers, such as vegetable oil-based plasticizers, cardanol-based plasticizers, lactic acid-based plasticizers, waste cooking oil-based plasticizers, polyester plasticizers, hyperbranched plasticizers and so on, have been extensively studied.
