Developments of biobased plasticizers
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...
Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate Plasticizers
This page is DIC (formerly Dainippon Ink and Chemicals) 'Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate Plasticizers)'. DIC is working to develop plasticizers (non-phthalate) that accommodate usage restrictions for Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals and food utensils, containers and packaging, and toys. Examples of major applications and representative product numbers of non-phthalate
Synthesis and Properties of Isosorbide-Based Eco-friendly Plasticizers
An esterified isosorbide with long alkyl-chain length was epoxidized to enhance its plasticizing properties and enable low-cost production; the high epoxidation degree (91%) indicated efficient...
Synthesis and Properties of Isosorbide-Based Eco-friendly Plasticizers
Thus, ISODEOL was confirmed to be the most efficient plasticizer for PVC sheets, compared to other bio-based novel plasticizers in this study. Table 4 Mechanical properties of PVC sheets with different plasticizers Full size table PVC products formed using a plasticizer should be thermally stable.
- Are plasticizers environmentally friendly?
- Four environmentally friendly plasticizer samples were obtained; their chemical structures and compositions were confirmed by gas chromatography (GC) and infrared spectroscopy (FT–IR) analyses, and their physicochemical properties and thermal stability (TGA analysis) were investigated.
- Which plasticizers are used for soft PVC?
- Mechanical properties and migration resistance were determined for soft PVC with the use of three concentrations of plasticizers (40 PHR, 50 PHR, and 60 PHR).
- Can plasticizers replace petroleum-based plasticizer in PVC applications?
- Compared to DINP and DEHP, the migration was as much as 70% lower for each plasticizer concentration. Thus, due to their good compatibility, efficiency and thermal properties, the plasticizers synthesized in this research have the potential to replace petroleum-based plasticizers in PVC applications.
- Can succinate esters replace toxic phthalate plasticizers?
- Succinate esters are promising PVC environmentally friendly plasticizers that can replace toxic phthalate plasticizers. They are not only less toxic than phthalate plasticizers but also show better resistance to plasticizer migration from the polymer matrix.
- Why are plasticizers replaced with a compatible & non-toxic ester plasticizer?
- To avoid the negative effects caused by plasticizer migration and at the same time maintain the good properties of soft PVC, low-molecular-weight plasticizers were replaced with compatible and non-toxic ester plasticizers.
- How are plasticizers characterized?
- The produced plasticizers were characterized by GC, TGA, FTIR, and physicochemical properties. Their plasticizing performance was mainly evaluated by the analysis of physicochemical properties, mechanical properties, and plasticizer migration of the soft PVC samples and was compared with those of the commercial plasticizers DINP and DEHP.
