Recent Attempts in the Design of Efficient PVC Plasticizers
When looking for new plasticizers, research has focused on lowering the glass transition temperature (which means that a plasticizer has better plasticization efficiency), associated with an increase in elongation at break value and a decrease in the tensile strength of material.

Recent Attempts in the Design of Efficient PVC Plasticizers
Review on the manuscript "Recent attempts in the design of efficient PVC plasticizers with reduced migration" submitted to materials (IF=3) as a review. The basic goal of the authors is to try and explain the development of new plasticizer for PVC.
- Can Plasticizers improve the mechanical properties of poly (vinyl chloride)?
- Multiple requests from the same IP address are counted as one view. This paper reviews the current trends in replacing commonly used plasticizers in poly (vinyl chloride), PVC, formulations by new compounds with reduced migration, leading to the enhancement in mechanical properties and better plasticizing efficiency.
- How does an efficient plasticizer interact with PVC?
- An efficient plasticizer interacts with PVC and breaks the extended network of chain-to-chain dipole-induced dipole forces present originally in a polymer that is observed as an attenuation of a signal coming from the covalent bonds. The stronger the interactions, the more prominent the shift of particular peaks to the lower wavenumber .
- Is PVC a good plasticizer?
- Thermal stability studies showed that PVC blends with HPGs were more stable (exhibiting higher onset temperature values on TGA curves) than samples with DEHP. A great number of ether and ester groups in a plasticizer molecule provide donor-acceptor interactions with PVC, resulting in an excellent migration resistance.
- Does covalent bonding affect plasticization efficiency?
- Covalent bonding of plasticizer molecules and PVC chains is an effective way to suppress the migration of a plasticizer from plastics. Although they not able to exhibit good plasticization efficiency, new internal plasticizers are still developed. There are several studies describing internal plasticizers and this issue is still being investigated.
- Do plasticizers migrate from PVC to DOP?
- As expected, the migration of plasticizers was equal to zero. Mechanical properties of the material with modified PVC were compared to a material plasticized by DOP. The commonly used plasticizer provided significantly lower tensile strength and higher elongation at break than the modified one.
- Does a secondary plasticizer increase elongation at break of a PVC sample?
- When the main plasticizer was replaced by 5 and 10 phr of DEHF, the elongation at break of the PVC sample was significantly elevated; however, a higher content of the secondary plasticizer caused a decrease in elongation.
