  • Which plasticizer has the best mechanical properties?
  • Of the plasticizers we synthesized, the best film mechanical properties were provided by OC plasticizer, containing primarily propylene glycol monoacetate, but also propylene glycol diacetate, acetic acid and propylene glycol in its mixture.
  • What are the chemical properties of plasticizers?
  • The chemical properties, such as acid value, iodine value, saponification value, ester value and water content were determinated for the plasticizers and are shown in Table 2. This values provide an additional confirmation for the occurrence of esterification and epoxidation reactions, respectively.
  • Are alternative plasticizers effective?
  • The research confirmed that the alternative plasticizers introduced by us are more effective than commercially available ones, exhibiting lower hydrophilicity and superior mechanical properties compared to samples plasticized with traditional plasticizers. Moreover, these properties were found to be even better after ageing for 10 months. 1.
  • Which plasticizer is best for food contact?
  • (31−36)Among them, citrate ester-based plasticizers are widely used because of their good miscibility with the PLA and their biocompatibility, ideal for food contact applications. (32,34,37)Specifically, to improve the mechanical properties of the PLA, TEC, a nontoxic, eco-friendly, and natural plasticizer, has been widely used. (37−42)
  • Which plasticizers can be used in food packaging?
  • (10,30)Additionally, to form highly flexible materials with ideal properties for food packaging, PLA and PLA blends have been combined with numerous plasticizers such as poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), polyethylene glycol (PEG), triethyl citrate (TEC), tributyl citrate (TBC), acetyl-tributyl citrate (TBAC), or epoxidized vegetable oils.
  • How many chemicals can be used as plasticizers?
  • There are about 30 000 chemicals can potentially be utilized as plasticizers. (1) Phthalate plasticizers are a commonly utilized compound, comprising up to 85% of the total plasticizers in the market.
