Green Plasticizers for PVC - Advances in Engineering
During processing of polymers, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), phthalate esters are often used as the main plasticizer. Recent researches have established that phthalate plasticizers have a tendency to migrate from a polymer matrix into which it has been incorporated, into the natural environment.

An efficient bio-based plasticizer for poly (vinyl chloride
In this study, a bio-based efficient plasticizer (acetylated-fatty acid methyl ester-citric acid ester, AC-FAME-CAE) for poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) was synthesized by using waste cooking oil and citric acid as raw materials in very user-friendly approaches. Its structure was characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR.
Green plasticizers derived from epoxidized soybean oil
With increasing of the degree of national environmental policy and export bans of Europe and America, more and more green non-toxic plasticizers are developed and applied in the PVC. Among them, ESO, one of green non-toxic plasticizers recognized by FDA, has received much attention during the past several decades [6].
- Why are plasticizers added to PVC?
- General, plasticizers are added into PVC to improve the thermal, mechanical and flame-retardant properties . Nowadays, there are more than 500 kinds of plasticizers in the market. Among them, phthalate plasticizers dominate the main commercial plasticizers . These phthalate plasticizers are derived from petroleum resources.
- What are green non-toxic plasticizers?
- With increasing of the degree of national environmental policy and export bans of Europe and America, more and more green non-toxic plasticizers are developed and applied in the PVC. Among them, ESO, one of green non-toxic plasticizers recognized by FDA, has received much attention during the past several decades .
- Is there a biobased plasticizer for PVC formulation?
- Growing awareness of the effects of plasticizers on the environment and the depletion of petroleum-based resources has made the development of an alternative biobased plasticizer for PVC formulation necessary.
- Who are the authors of a new eco-friendly plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride?
- Sergiy Rogalsky, Oksana Tarasyuk, Alina Vashchuk, Valeriy Davydenko, Oleg Dzhuzha, Sviatoslav Motrunich, Tetiana Cherniavska, Oleksii Papeikin, Larysa Bodachivska, Jean-François Bardeau. Synthesis and evaluation of N,N-dibutylundecenamide as new eco-friendly plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride.
- How are bio-plasticizers used in PVC?
- Bio-Plasticizers are integrated into polyvinyl chloride (PVC) during the manufacturing process to enhance the material’s flexibility and workability. This incorporation occurs through a process known as internal plasticization, where the Bio-Plasticizer interacts with the polymer matrix at a molecular level.
- Are natural resource-based plasticizers better than phthalates in PVC production?
- 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.
