Highly efficient recovery of high-purity Cu, PVC, and phthalate
Novel methods for recycling waste wire harnesses, namely, dry rod milling (which involves the swelling of the cables followed by milling) and wet rod milling (which involves the simultaneous swelling and milling of the cables), were developed for the simultaneous recovery of the Cu wires, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coatings, and phthalate plasticizer in high purity.
Diverging trends of plasticizers (phthalates and non-phthalates)
Background European chemicals management aims to protect human health and the environment from legacy and emerging contaminants. The plasticizer market changed in response to the restriction of low molecular weight (LMW) phthalate plasticizers such as Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) due to their hazardous properties. We investigated patterns and trends of 19 regulated and emerging
On the stabilization of organic peroxides by plasticizers: Quantum
Upon the suggestion of an anonymous reviewer - using the same method and basis set we also computationally studied three possible covalent products of a reaction between 2,2-dihydroperoxybutane and dimethyl phthalate and product which could exist if the proton from hydrogen bond tunnel to phthalate acceptor forming ionic bond (protonated dimethyl phthalate and deprotonated 2,2
Dimethyl phthalate | ≥99%(HPLC) | plasticizer | AdooQ
Dimethyl phthalate, a known endocrine disruptor and one of the phthalate esters (PAEs), is a ubiquitous pollutant. Dimethyl phthalate is commonly used as a plasticizer to impart flexibility to rigid polyvinylchloride (PVC) resins.
Nonphthalate Plasticizers in House Dust from Multiple Countries: An
Along with the restrictions of phthalate esters (PAEs), a variety of nonphthalate plasticizers (NPPs) have been increasingly used for industrial needs. Knowledge remains limited on the environmental occurrences, fate, and human exposure risks of many emerging NPPs. In this study, we investigated a suite of 45 NPPs along with the major PAEs in house dust from five regions in the Asia-Pacific
