Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their applications in poly(vinyl chloride)

Zheming Zhang et al.

Summary: PVC, widely used around the world, has traditionally been plasticized with petroleum-based chemicals, but their negative impact on health and environment have led to restrictions in certain regions. The development of bio-based PVC plasticizers as alternatives is important, with various types extensively studied and categorized by raw materials and chemical structure. Understanding the relationship between chemical structure and plasticizing performance is key to predicting the efficiency of these novel plasticizers.

Dibutyl phthalate release from polyvinyl chloride microplastics: Influence of plastic properties and environmental factors

Yuanyuan Yan et al.

Summary: This study investigated the leaching behavior of phthalate plasticizer from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) microplastics and found that plastic properties had a significant impact on the release of plasticizer, while environmental factors had a minor influence. Fulvic acid was found to greatly promote phthalate release, suggesting that it can enhance phthalate solubility and solution-plastic affinity. Additionally, the coexistence of fulvic acid and NaCl resulted in more phthalate leaching, indicating a potential role of other fulvic acid-like additives in the leaching process.

Mechanical and barrier properties of polyvinyl chloride plasticized with dioctyl phthalate, epoxidized soybean oil, and epoxidized cardanol

Sukanya Satapathy et al.

Summary: Epoxidized cardanol (EC) showed better plasticization effect on PVC films compared to epoxidized soybean oil (ESBO) and dioctyl phthalate (DOP), resulting in improved mechanical properties and thermal stability. Films prepared with a mixture of DOP + EC at 40 wt.% plasticizer loading exhibited enhanced performance in comparison to others. Incorporating graphene and nanoclay in the PVC/plasticizer system increased oxygen transmission rate, but nano filler incorporated PVC/EC films showed better oxygen barrier properties than PVC/DOP films.
