Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
Citrate plasticizers have good miscibility, biodegradable, resistant to leaching and water and have legal use as additives. The demand for bioplasticizers is reported to increase from 887...
Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate
This page is DIC (formerly Dainippon Ink and Chemicals) 'Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate Plasticizers)'. DIC is working to develop plasticizers (non-phthalate) that accommodate usage restrictions for Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals and food utensils, containers and packaging, and toys. Examples of major applications and representative product numbers of non-phthalate
Flexidone – A New Class of Innovative PVC Plasticizers
2. Properties of Flexidones in soft-PVC applications In terms of worldwide consumption polyvinyl chloride (PVC) stands in third place behind polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP). Thank to the development of a wide range of functional additives, in particular thank to effective plasticizers PVC could achieve this important commercial relevance.
A Strategy for Nonmigrating Highly Plasticized PVC - Nature
The as-prepared PVC has a plasticizing efficiency as high as DOP and its migration is totally suppressed. Unlike other reported methods, this approach increases the interaction between...
Environmentally Friendly Plasticizers for PVC - DiVA portal
polymeric plasticizers, to tune the material performance, the long-term properties, and the release profile and rate. Taking into consideration these structure-property-performance relationships, improved polymeric plasticizers and safe PVC blends can be designed. 2 Introduction 2.1 Poly(vinyl chloride), PVC
- 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.
- Is adipate a good plasticizer?
- The new environmentally friendly plasticizer has good compatibility with PVC and high thermal stability. The effectiveness of the plasticizing action of adipate based on the glass-transition temperature was 132.2 °C in relation to pure PVC and 7.7 °C in comparison to compounds based on DOP.
- Does epoxidized WCO plasticizer provide better compatibility with PVC?
- While the production of epoxidized WCO plasticizer was reported, very limited information was available on the introduction of epoxy groups to the ester bond in WCO. It is expected that WCO-based plasticizer with a higher epoxy value could provide better compatibility with PVC.
- Which plasticizers are used for PVC?
- Phthalate compounds are the dominant plasticizers used for PVC. The utilization of these compounds, however, has sparked controversy due to potential human toxicity [Bui et al., 2016; Wei et al., 2016].
- How does plasticizer migration affect the quality and effectiveness of PVC?
- The migration of plasticizers is a key factor that impacts the quality and effectiveness of the PVC, and the mass loss due to plasticizer migration in different environments is shown in Fig. 8.
