  • Is esome a renewable plasticizer?
  • ESOME was selected as a renewable plasticizer since its biodegradable and linear structure should provide better compatibility with PLA than the star-shaped molecules of triglycerides (Figure S1), like epoxidized soybean oil (ESO). (35) Moreover, epoxy moieties can potentially form hydrogen bonds with PLA, improving compatibility.
  • Can ESO-branched cardanol ethers overcome the migration of epoxidized soybean oil?
  • To overcome the migration of epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) used as a poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) plasticizer, ESO-branched cardanol (CD) ethers (ESO-CD n) are designed and synthesized in this work.
  • Are epoxidized plant oils sustainable?
  • Deriving environmentally friendly and renewable polymers from epoxidized plant oils (EPOs) is one of the promising strategies for realizing the sustainable development of materials industry. Direct crosslinking EPOs without pre-modifications is a straightforward, efficient, and cost-effective way for the utilization of EPOs.
  • Are vegetable oils a good plasticizer?
  • Vegetable oils are promising, renewable plasticizers since they are readily available, biodegradable, and have low toxicity. (31−34) However, attempts to toughen PLA with vegetable oil plasticizers, leading to materials with elongations at break higher than 700%, are still hardly successful.
  • Can esome-plasticized PLA be used as food packaging material?
  • Migration tests were performed in different food simulants to evaluate the suitability of ESOME-plasticized PLA as food packaging material. Tenax was used as a solid food simulant, Milli-Q water as a drinkable water simulant, 50 vol % ethanol in water as a milk and alcoholic beverage simulant, and 90 vol % ethanol in water as a fatty food simulant.
  • How amorphous PLA was plasticized with environmentally friendly esome?
  • (A) Oxygen permeability and (B) water vapor permeability of PLA and PLA-ESOME samples. Commercial grade of the amorphous PLA was successfully plasticized with the environmentally friendly ESOME by extrusion melt blending and the full incorporation of the plasticizer was confirmed by 1 H NMR.
