Performance evaluation of new plasticizers for stretch PVC
Six stretch PVC films have been formulated to have Shore A hardness of approx. 80 and nominal thickness of 15 μm with the aim of evaluating the performance of plasticizers from renewable and non-renewable sources for stretch PVC films intended to be employed as packaging.

SANSO CIZER DOTH is a non-phthalate plasticizer produced by the esterification of cyclohexenedicarboxylic acidic anhydride with 2-ethylhexanol. It offers the same plasticizing performance as DOP but is superior in its resistance to cold. It is used in polyvinyl chloride paste products and rubber products found in toys and houseware.
CONTRIBUTION OF EPOXIDIZED SOYBEAN OIL IN PVC
Besides, for every Phr of DOP the VST is reduced by 3.5 deg C per Phr as against 1.5 deg C for ESBO. It is always a good practice to add around 3-5 Phr of ESBO in PVC compound. Besides, it
Bio- Based Co- Plasticizer for PVC in Addition with
Thus, there is need for more research to find high performance plasticizers that are safe and environment friendly . Currently, Epoxidized soyabean oil (ESBO) is mainly used as a plasticizer or stabilizer to modify the properties of plastic resins such as PVC . We therefore, have investigated the role of modified castor oil derivative as a
Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
Most common plasticiser chemistries include citrates, benzoates, ortho-phthalates, terephthalates, adipates, azelates, sebacates, and trimellitates. Plasticizers are the most common additives used in the plastics industry. But, selecting the right plasticizer for an application has always been a daunting task.
- Is Esbo a promising plasticizer for irradiated PVC products?
- In light of the findings, ESBO is a promising plasticizer that could be used for irradiated PVC products such as wire and cable. Nastaran Valipouri: Methodology, Investigation, Formal analysis.
- What is the difference between DOP and Esbo Plasticized PVC?
- Although both samples show a tough and flexible mechanical behavior, the elongation-at-break (182 ± 14 %) and especially Young's modulus 13.5 ± 1.1 MPa and tensile strength (17 ± 0.6 MPa) of DOP-plasticized PVC sample are considerably less in comparison with ESBO-plasticized PVC sample (PVC-E−3-50).
- What is E-PS plasticizer?
- E-PS is an alicyclic epoxy plasticizer that offers superior resistance to weather and discoloration from heat as well as excellent compatibility with polymers such as PVC. It is used as an alternative to DOP. It is also a popular durability improver for sealing materials such as silyl modified polymers.
- Is Esbo a bio-plasticizer for PVC crosslinked using electron beam irradiation?
- The performance of ESBO as a bio-plasticizer for PVC crosslinked using electron beam irradiation at different doses and the presence of various amounts of TMPTMA was investigated and compared with DOP as the most common plasticizer of PVC.
- What are epoxy plasticizers?
- Epoxy plasticizers are characterized by the epoxy groups contained in their molecules, which act as stabilizers in chrorine containing polymers such as polyvinylchloride (PVC). E-PS is an alicyclic epoxy plasticizer that offers superior resistance to weather and discoloration from heat as well as excellent compatibility with polymers such as PVC.
- Is DOP a good plasticizer?
- Plasticizing efficiency of DOP is considered as “1” and efficiency all other plasticizers is evaluated with reference to DOP. Besides, cost of DOP based compound can be reduced by blending it with CPW of appropriate grade in appropriate proportion (70:30), without affecting quality of product. However, DOP is on its way out due to health concerns.
