Phthalate and novel plasticizer concentrations in food items
High molecular weight phthalates like di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and diisononyl phthalate (DiNP) are commonly used as plasticizers in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) materials such as food
Two Phthalate-Free PVC Plasticizers Stand Out in New Report
The Healthy Building Network (HBN) has released a research brief, Phthalate-free Plasticizers in PVC, that describes six alternatives to phthalate plasticizers. Phthalates are semi-volatile organic compounds used in PVC building products to provide flexibility and other performance characteristics (see The PVC Debate: A Fresh Look ).
Catalytic upcycling of PVC waste-derived phthalate esters into safe
Recycling of end-of-life polyvinyl chloride (PVC) calls for solutions to deal with the vast amounts of harmful phthalate plasticizers that have historically been incorporated in PVC. Here, we report on the upcycling of such waste-extracted phthalate esters into analogues of the much safer diisononyl 1,2-cycl 2025 Green Chemistry Hot Articles
A Strategy for Nonmigrating Highly Plasticized PVC
Nonmigrating highly plasticized PVC was prepared based on a new compound that acts as a plasticizer that was derived from di (2-ethylhexyl) 4-hydrophthalate and chlorinated paraffin-52. The...
Plasticiser loss from plastic or rubber products through diffusion and
Royaux et al. 40 reported that at 80 °C, the plasticiser migration from PVC transitioned from a diffusion-controlled mode in an open air environment to an evaporation-controlled mode in a...
- Can highly plasticized PVC materials replace toxic phthalate plasticizers?
- The highly plasticized PVC materials are promising to find application in various fields as a replacement of plasticized PVC materials containing toxic phthalate plasticizers. The study provides new way for chemical transformation and improving added value of non-timber forest resources in plantation. 1. Introduction
- Can phthalate-free PVC materials replace Plasticized PVC?
- Phthalate-free and highly plasticized PVC materials exhibited improved flexibility and solvent extraction resistance, which make it promising to replace plasticized PVC materials containing toxic phthalate plasticizers.
- Are plasticizers phthalate-free?
- nyl phthalate (DINP).Key FindingsHBN identified six phthalate-free plasticizer types, three synthetic and three bio-based, in use i ommercial PVC building products. The available data suggest that non-phthalate plasticizers present fewer hu
- How are phthalate-free and highly plasticized polyvinyl chloride materials produced?
- Phthalate-free and highly plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) materials were produced via substituting chlorine of PVC with dehydroabietic acid derivatives containing primary amine groups.
- How do phthalate plasticizers interact with PVC?
- Phthalate plasticizers covalently linked to PVC via copper-free or copper catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloadditions Structurally enhanced self-plasticization of poly (vinyl chloride) via click grafting of hyperbranched polyglycerol Macromol.
- Which phthalate is the most widely used plasticizer?
- Phthalate esters, including dioctyl phthalate (DOP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and other phthalate esters, are the most widely used plasticizer. It is reported that production capacity of plasticizer has exceeded 6.4 million tons around the world, in which half of them are produced in China.
