Current Status of Plasticizer Research | SpringerLink
After several tens of years, the plasticizer industry in China has grown to a relatively large scale. Currently, China has the largest plasticizer production and consumption in Asia, with a capacity of 2.2 million tons, an actual volume of 1.3 million tons, and an apparent consumption of 1.7 million tons.
Triacetin as a Secondary PVC Plasticizer | SpringerLink
The use of biobased plasticizers with low toxicity and good compatibility with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has become more attractive in the recent years in contrast with phthalate derivatives. In this study, a glycerol derivative plasticizer (triacetin—TAG) was tested as a secondary plasticizer for PVC. TAG was added to PVC formulations from 10 up to 20 phr. The increase of the plasticizer
Selection of Solid-State Plasticizers as Processing Aids
The physical and mechanical properties of plasticizers, in selected binary (polymer:plasticizer) and ternary (active pharmaceutical ingredient:polymer:plasticizer) systems, were evaluated to assess their effectiveness as processing aids for HME process.
INVISTA Adi-pure | High-Purity Adipic Acid
What is Adi-pure? INVISTA Adi-pure high-purity adipic acid is a crystalline, white powder that exhibits typical carboxylic acid chemistry. With excellent uniformity and consistent end-use performance, Adi-pure adipic acid is a valuable intermediate for a wide range of applications, including:
- Which plasticizer has a low plasticizing efficiency?
- Polymeric plasticizer generally has low plasticizing efficiency. Navarro et al. 35 replaced the chlorine on the PVC backbone via nucleophilic substitution of thiol groups attached to the benzene ring of di (2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (also known as dioctyl phthalate, DOP, the most common plasticizer), to give totally nonleachable PVC.
- Why is plasticizer important?
- Plasticizer is not only a processing aid but also an important component to determine the performance and application of PVC. Therefore, plasticizers are the most important commercial application of PVC. However, plasticizers can leach out of flexible PVC, changing the performance of PVC with age and contaminating the environment.
- Which plasticizer has the highest molecular weight?
- Both methods indicated DEHP as the plasticizer with the highest migration, and palm oil-based as the plasticizer with the highest molecular weight as the one with the lowest migration.
- Can a low molecular weight plasticizer be used as a secondary plasticizer?
- Noteworthy research focused on the introduction of a low molecular weight plasticizer as a secondary plasticizer and was carried out by Matos et al. DEHT was partially (5, 10, 15, 20 phr) replaced by di (ethylhexyl)-2,5-furandicarboxylate (DEHF) in PVC plastics (with whole plasticizer content of 55 phr).
- What is nonmigrating highly plasticized PVC?
- Nonmigrating highly plasticized PVC was prepared based on a new compound that acts as a plasticizer that was derived from di (2-ethylhexyl) 4-hydrophthalate and chlorinated paraffin-52. The as-prepared PVC has a plasticizing efficiency as high as DOP and its migration is totally suppressed.
- Why is DOP a good plasticizer for PVC?
- High plasticizing efficiency of DOP for PVC is attributed to DOP’s good compatibility with PVC and its high rate of diffusion in PVC, which result from the interaction between DOP and PVC molecules.
