  • When will a benzoic acid & plasticizer expansion project start?
  • The investment supports growing market demand for benzoic acid, non-phthalate plasticizers and benzoate preservatives, the company says. If final approval for the expansion project is granted, construction will begin later this year and continue into 2016, with a planned start-up in the fourth quarter next year.
  • Why are Benzoate plasticizers becoming more popular?
  • Demand for benzoate plasticizers has also shown sustained growth, especially in Europe and North America, where regulatory issues and environmental legislation have driven the need to replace low-molecular-weight phthalate plasticizers in PVC resins.
  • What are benzoic acid and sodium benzoate used for?
  • Benzoic acid and sodium benzoate are used as antimicrobials in a wide range of products, from food and personal care to industrial applications, including plastics.
  • Where is benzoic acid used?
  • Their use has seen some growth in Europe and North America in the past, where regulatory issues have forced the replacement of low-molecular-weight phthalate plasticizers in PVC resins. Mainland China, Western Europe, and North America account for the majority of world consumption of benzoic acid in 2021.
  • How are adipate-based polyester plasticizers made?
  • In 2008, this team prepared a series of adipate-based polyester plasticizers via esterification reactions between adipic acid and 1,2-propylene glycol, 1,3-butanediol, and 1,4-butanediol, respectively, with 2-ethylethanol as the end-capping agent.
  • What are the global growth prospects for benzoic acid?
  • Global growth prospects for benzoic acid are moderate. Future growth in demand will be driven mostly by the increasing production of sodium and potassium benzoate salts in mainland China and eventually in Europe. The main factors behind this growth are the following:
