Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
Biomass renewable resources have wide range of sources and low prices, and the chemicals obtained from them have various structures, which can provide a huge platform to design novel PVC plasticizers with the aim of replacing traditional phthalate plasticizers. Many bio-based PVC plasticizers, such as vegetable oil-based plasticizers, cardanol
Green plasticizers for PVC - An investigation of renewable
Green plasticizers for PVC - An investigation of renewable alternatives to phthalates derived from vegetable oils or wood industry products Licentiate thesis, 2013 Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a very versatile thermoplastic because of its ability to solve a broad range of different concentrations of plasticizer.
Special Issue "Green Plasticizers for Polymers" - MDPI
The scope of this issue ranges from synthesis of green plasticizers, enhancement of physical and rheological properties, migration of plasticizers upon disposal, relationships between plasticizers and human health, and life-cycle-assessment.
Inuence of Plasticizers Basing on Renewable Sources on the
interaction of polymer and plasticizer and the resulting properties, especially the deformation and fracture behaviour. It was shown that by using renewable plasti-cizers a comparable or better property level of technical rubber vulcanizates is possible.

Plasticizers for the PVC industry are now also available
“The mass balance approach enables us to process renewable and recycled feedstocks together with fossil raw materials in our existing efficient production network and to allocate their share to specific products,” explains Diana Brunnenkant, Head of Marketing Plasticizers EMEA. “The principle is similar to that of green electricity.
- 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.
- Does Proviron manufacture plasticizers for PVC film?
- Proviron (Germany) commercializes different high-quality non-phthalate plasticizers and bio-based green plasticizers for PVC film applications, general-purpose plasticizer for PVC [www.proviron.com].
- Is PVC a cold-resistant plasticizer?
- The cold-resistant bio-based plasticizer is synthesized by oleic acid, and the PVC plasticized by these plasticizers possesses remarkable migration resistance and cold resistance. Ever since its inception in 1926, poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) has always benefited modern civilization in a countless aspects .
- 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 .
- 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 plasticizer improve thermal stability and flexibility of PVC?
- Compared with commercial dioctyl phthalate plasticizer, the plasticizer developed in this study improved the thermal stability and flexibility of PVC along with a lower glass transition temperature. The plasticizer showed marginal volatility and excellent resistance for migration in PVC matrix. The mechanism behind such observation was discussed.
