  • Which organic plasticizers are used for plasticization of biopolymers?
  • Organic plasticizers for the plasticization of biopolymers include phthalate esters (e.g., di-isononyl phthalate, DINP, di-isodecyl phthalate, DIDP, and dioctyl phthalate, DOP) [ 21 ]; however, the use of phthalates is now restricted due to their toxicity and migration into the environment [ 22 ].
  • Can liquid plasticizers come out from the polymer matrix?
  • Depending on certain conditions, liquid plasticizers can come out from the polymer matrix. During service and storage, this loss is problematic because it leads to unwanted changes of the mechanical properties (loss of flexibility and toughness with an increment of stiffness).
  • Can nanoparticles improve bioplastic performance?
  • In recent years, much research attention has been shifted toward devising diverse methods for enhancing the performance of bioplastics, particularly in the utilization of environmentally benign nanoparticles to displace the conventional hazardous chemicals.
  • Can plasticizers be used for biodegradable polymers?
  • With the use of plasticizers, biopolymers could be modified to meet a wide range of specifications, such as elongation at break. Plasticizers for biodegradable polymers should, first of all, be compatible with the biopolymer, exhibit high thermal stability, and, at the same time, be non-volatile during and after thermal processing.
  • Are nano-scale and micro-scale fillers effective in reducing plasticizer migration?
  • Various nano-scale and micro-scale fillers with different geometries (such as: montmorillonite, silica, calcium carbonate, and aluminum oxide) are reported to improve not only the properties of polymers such as toughness, stiffness, and heat resistance [ 40, 41] but they also can limit the plasticizer migration [ 35, 38 ].
  • Does plasticizer improve elasticity and elongation of bioplastic?
  • The elasticity and flexibility of bioplastic is enhanced through the weakening of the internal hydrogen bonds among polymer chains and increasing the molecular spacing [ 18, 107 ]. Therefore, plasticizer plays an important role in improving the flexibility, softening and elongation properties of the bioplastic [ 20 ].
