Professional R&D and excellent quality plasticizer chemicals

ESBO is one of the additives in the PVC gasket. It serves as a plasticizer and a scavenger for hydrochloric acid released when the PVC degrades thermally, e.g. when the gasket is applied to the lid and food product undergoes sterilization. [5] ESBO is also used in PVC cling films for wrapping foods and toys. Safety [ edit] Food [ edit]

Plasticizers are the colorless and odorless chemicals mainly phthalate esters, which are used to used enhance the elasticity of polymers mainly polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Around more than 90% of plasticizers are used in production of polyvinyl chloride also known as vinyl.

Epoxidized Soybean Oil Epoxidized soybean oil, better known by its acronym, ESBO, is a plasticizer used in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics. It serves as a plasticizer and as a scavenger for hydrochloric acid liberated from PVC when the PVC undergoes heat treatment.

et al. 2014). In particular, ESBO is indicated as an addi-tive in most of the commercial PVC wrap that is currently marketed. The most important EU regulations which con-cern plastics for food contact are the following: EU Commission Directive 1935/2004, 2025/2006/EC, and 10/2011/UE (modified by EU Regulation 1282/2011).

Epoxidised soybean oil (ESBO) is widely used as a plasticiser and stabiliser mainly in food contact materials on the base of polyvinylchloride (PVC), especially in the gaskets of jar lids. PVC...
