Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
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.
Bio-Based Plasticizers for Polyvinylchloride (PVC) | SpringerLink
Polyvinylchloride (PVC) is a thermoplastic polymer widely used in large applications due to the excellent balance between cost and properties. Due to the environmental and human health concerns of consumption of petrochemical-based plasticizers, the use of bio-based plasticizers has been increasing. The new blends of PVC made with green
Recent Developments of Biobased Plasticizers and Their Effect on
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.
Plasticizers Derived from Biomass Resources: A Short Review
With rising environmental concerns and depletion of petrochemical resources, biomass-based chemicals have been paid more attention. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plasticizers derived from biomass resources (vegetable oil, cardanol, vegetable fatty acid, glycerol and citric acid) have been widely studied to replace petroleum-based o-phthalate plasticizers. These bio-based plasticizers mainly include
Green plasticizers derived from soybean oil for poly (vinyl chloride
Properties of poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) plasticized with different soybean oil based polyol ester as main plasticizer were evaluated and compared to that of traditional plasticizers...
- 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.
- Are green plasticizers good for PVC?
- The new blends of PVC made with green plasticizers show attractive properties in terms of thermal stability, migration resistance, mechanical properties, etc. making them appropriate for the medical and industrial applications.
- 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].
- Does poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) have a plasticizing effect?
- The plasticizing effect of the developed material on the properties of poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) was studied. The results showed that epoxy groups were covalently bonded on the fatty acid derivated from WCO through the addition and epoxidization reactions.
- Which plasticizers are used in flexible PVC products?
- The conventional petroleum-derived plasticizers used in many flexible PVC products are phthalate esters (also known as “phthalates”). The literature reported that phthalates represent more than 85% of world plasticizers production, of which 90% is annually used in PVC manufacturing .
