Novel environmentally sustainable cardanol‐based plasticizers
A series of novel plasticizers derived from cardanol, a well-known renewable organic resource as the main by-product of the cashew industry, have been synthesized and characterized.
Novel environmentally sustainable cardanol-based plasticizer
Abstract An approach covalently linking cardanol, a well-known renewable organic resource of the cashew industry, to PVC chains using the click reaction has been studied. Under the conditions, cardanol was covalently linked to PVC chains as a natural internal plasticizer.
RSC Advances
Three approaches have been considered for design of desirable plasticizers: (1) replacing the classical plasticizers by materials that are biocompatible or oligomeric character and, (2) reducing plasticizer leaching and migration from flexible PVC to environments and (3) covalent linkage of plasticizers to PVC chains.
Biodegradable Plasticizer from Cardanol via Acid-Free
The most widely used phthalic ester plasticizers are reproductive toxic and nonbiodegradable. Developing biodegradable plasticizers from biomass resources remains a great challenge for the enrichment and pollution of plasticizers that seriously damage the environment. In this study, a biodegradable plasticizer (CEPT, cardanol-based epoxy plasticizer containing a triazine ring) was fabricated
Developments of biobased plasticizers for compostable
The development and utilization of biobased plasticizers derived from epoxidized soybean oil, castor oil, cardanol, citrate, and isosorbide have been broadly investigated. The synthesis of...
- Is cardanol a biodegradable plasticizer?
- In this study, a biodegradable plasticizer (CEPT, cardanol-based epoxy plasticizer containing a triazine ring) was fabricated and derived from cardanol via acid-free catalysis.
- Are cardanol based plasticizers epoxidized?
- Cardanol based plasticizers esterified with C2, C14 and C18 have been epoxidized and studied as plasticizers for PVC. 40 Once epoxidized, plasticizers were observed to be more miscible in PVC and could be easily used as the primary plasticizer.
- What are cardanol-based biobased plasticizers?
- Cardanol-based biobased plasticizers offer advantages such as renewability, solvent-resistant extraction and efficient plasticizing performance, making them potentially suitable for partial or total replacement of petroleum-based plasticizers.
- Is cardanol a good plasticizer for cellulose acetate?
- Additionally, cardanol shows potential applications in the plasticization of PLA and cellulose acetate, alongside PVC, representing a relatively recent field compared to PVC applications. While cardanol exhibits promising plasticizer properties for both PLA and cellulose acetate, further research is necessary to validate its effectiveness.
- Can cardanol ECA2 be used as a secondary plasticizer?
- Furthermore, as for cardanol esters, epoxy esters of cardanol ECA2 have been studied as a secondary plasticizer.
- Are cardanol derivatives suitable for plasticizer synthesis?
- Having been already proven to be a compatibilizer agent with PLA, notably for PLA-ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) mixtures,75,76 PLA-PBAT (polybutylene adipate- co -terephthalate) 77 or PLA-bamboo, 78 cardanol derivatives appear to be relevant candidates for plasticizer synthesis for PLA.
