Studies on performance evaluation of a green plasticizer made
It was an effective plasticizer with better mechanical properties and thermal stability at the increasing concentration of FA-COFA ester (15–25%) containing EC film, than the traditional plasticizer, i.e; dibutyl phthalate (DBP) in producing good quality films.

Identifying Greener and Safer Plasticizers: A 4-Step Approach
The diesters of 3 small organic acids—succinic acid, fumaric acid, and their structural isomer, maleic acid, were considered as candidate chemicals (Erythropel et al., 2012) as previous studies identified small diesters to be suitable plasticizers (Van Veersen and Meulenberg, 1967). Plasticizers synthesized from succinic acid also present the

- Can vegetable oil based plasticizers be used for plasticized poly (vinyl chloride) materials?
- The use of vegetable oil based plasticizers can create new application for plasticized poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) materials. In this study, novel environmental castor oil based polyol esters (COPE-1, ECOPE-1, COPE-2 and ECOPE-2) were synthesized and characterized with FT-IR and 1 H NMR.
- Can glycerol be used as a plasticizer for biodegradable films?
- (Elsevier Ltd.) Biodegradable films were produced from blends contained a high amt. of thermoplastic starch (TPS) and poly(lactic acid) (PLA) plasticized with different adipate or citrate esters. It was not possible to obtain pellets for the prodn. of films using only glycerol as a plasticizer.
- Can citrate esters be used as plasticizers with poly(lactic acid) (PLA)?
- (Wiley) Citrate esters were used as plasticizers with poly(lactic acid) (PLA). Films were extruded using a single-screw extruder with plasticizer contents of 10, 20, and 30% by wt. All of the citrate esters investigated were found to be effective in reducing the glass transition temp. and improving the elongation at break.
- Which plasticizer is used to improve the mechanical properties of PLA?
- (32,34,37)Specifically, to improve the mechanical properties of the PLA, TEC, a nontoxic, eco-friendly, and natural plasticizer, has been widely used. (37−42) In recent years, natural cellulosic fibers have been combined with polymers for the production of low-cost and high-performance materials.
- Does plasticizer affect morphology of nanocomposites?
- The effect of the amt. of plasticizer varying from 15-40% on the performance of the nanocomposites was evaluated. The morphologies of these nanocomposites were evaluated through x-ray diffraction, at. force microscopy (AFM), and TEM studies. The mech. properties of nanocomposites are correlated with the x-ray diffraction and TEM observations.
- Are plasticizers effective in reducing glass transition temp & melting temp?
- The thermal and mech. properties of plasticized polymers were investigated by means of dynamic mech. anal. and differential scanning calorimetry. At. force microscopy (AFM) was used to analyze the morphologies of the blends. Multiple plasticizers were effective in lowering the glass transition temp. (Tg) and the melting temp. (Tm) of PLA.
