  • Are plasticizers a problem in Germany?
  • We found an increasing number of substitutes in the German part of the three major European rivers Rhine, Danube and Elbe, as well as other waters in Germany. As a result, the total burden of plasticizers in the aquatic environment has hardly changed since 2005.
  • What is the role of plasticizers in polymers?
  • The primary role of plasticizers is to improve the flexibility and processability of polymers by lowering the second order transition temperature . Plasticizers are actually low molecular weight (MW) resins or liquids, which form secondary bonds to polymer chains and spread them apart.
  • What is the demand for plasticizers?
  • With predicted global PVC growth of about 3% per year ( IHS Markit, 2018 ), the demand for plasticizers is expected to grow steadily. Phthalate esters - especially DEHP - accounted for the majority of plasticizers used in previous years.
  • Why are plasticizers marketed in high volumes?
  • Plasticizers are marketed in high volumes and Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is frequently detected in the environment and human populations. Industry had largely relied on DEHP until regulation started to restrict its marketing in 1999 due to environmental and human health concerns.
  • What is the difference between primary and secondary plasticizers?
  • Primary plasticizers are used as the sole plasticizer or as the major component of plasticizer, while secondary plasticizers are typically blended with primary ones to improve certain performance properties and/or to lower cost. 2.2. Evolution of plasticizers
  • Which plasticizer has the highest DEHP concentration in Rehlingen/Saar?
  • By 2017, the DEHP concentration in Rehlingen had dropped to 2080 ng/g dw. Currently, Diisononyl phthalate (DINP) is the plasticizer with the highest levels in the SPM samples (maximum value 4150 ng/g dw in Rehlingen/Saar).
