Hanwha Solutions' phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH offers answer to
Hanwha Solutions’ Chemical Division announced that it quadrupled annual production of phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH. Up to 6.5 tons of it will be produced every year at a petrochemical industrial complex in the southeastern port city of Ulsan, South Korea.
EcoFriendly Plasticizers IHS Chemical - IHS Markit
Eco-Friendly Plasticizers PEP Report 62B Published December 2014 Plasticizers are organic esters, which is compounded into polymers to facilitate processing, and to improve flexibility and toughness of the final products through internal modification of the polymer morphology.
Plasticizers - Chemical Economics Handbook (CEH) | S&P Global - IHS Markit
Published May 2025. Flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) accounts for 80–90% of global plasticizer consumption. Flexible PVC (and thus plasticizers) is found in the following applications: construction (flooring, wall coverings), electrical (wire and cable jacketing), consumer goods (toys, footwear, etc.), packaging, transportation (inside and outside of vehicles), furnishings, and medical uses
Plasticizers Global Market Report 2025
Plasticizers are chemical additives used to increase the plasticity or fluidity of a material. Plasticizers have dominant uses in rubber, resins, and plastics, especially polyvinyl chloride...
Eco-Friendly Plasticizers Market Size, Share | Industry Forecast, 2030
Eco friendly plasticizers are derived mainly from biomass sources including agricultural products, its by-products and waste. Regardless of the biomass source, ideal eco-friendly plasticizers are expected to be non-toxic, highly resistant to leaching, miscible, effective, and relatively low in cost. Eco friendly plasticizers such as epoxidized
- Are bio plasticizers environmentally friendly?
- Unlike conventional plasticizers that are petroleum-based, Bio-Plasticizers are sourced from natural materials such as vegetable oils, starches, and fatty acids. They are considered environmentally friendly due to their renewable nature and lower toxicity levels. Why Use Bio-Plasticizers?
- How are bio-plasticizers used in PVC?
- Bio-Plasticizers are integrated into polyvinyl chloride (PVC) during the manufacturing process to enhance the material’s flexibility and workability. This incorporation occurs through a process known as internal plasticization, where the Bio-Plasticizer interacts with the polymer matrix at a molecular level.
- Are bio-plasticizers a sustainable alternative to traditional plasticizers?
- Bio-Plasticizers, eco-friendly alternatives to traditional plasticizers, enhance PVC's properties while promoting sustainability across various industries due to health concerns.
- What is the interaction between bio-plasticizer and PVC?
- The interaction between the Bio-Plasticizer and PVC is facilitated by various mixing techniques, typically conducted at temperatures ranging from 25°C to 70°C, which ensures efficient dispersion and absorption of the plasticizer within the PVC particles.
- What are bio plasticizers?
- What are Bio-Plasticizers?
- Bio-Plasticizers are additives used in the production of plastics to improve flexibility, durability, and processability. Unlike conventional plasticizers that are petroleum-based, Bio-Plasticizers are sourced from natural materials such as vegetable oils, starches, and fatty acids.
