  • Are plasticizers phthalate or non phthalates?
  • Plasticizers are usually grouped into phthalates and non-phthalates. Phthalates still represent the majority in the European plasticizer market, at around 60% . However, since the end of the 1990s there has been a steady shift within the phthalate plasticizers from LMW phthalates toward HMW phthalates .
  • Are ortho-phthalates a common plasticizer?
  • While recent studies suggest ortho-phthalates and other plasticizers are ubiquitous in widely consumed foods including milk and other dairy products [13, 14], oils [15, 16], and infant formula [9, 16]), few studies capture data on a broad suite of plasticizers .
  • Why are phthalate plasticizers banned in the EU?
  • The use of some phthalate plasticizers has been successively restricted in the EU since the late 1990s due to their endocrine disrupting (ED) properties, especially in sensitive applications for humans, such as baby products, children's toys, cosmetics and food packaging [31, 33, 34, 35].
  • Which non-ortho phthalate plasticizers are used in flexible PVC?
  • Several non-ortho phthalate plasticizers, including ATBC, DEHA, DINCH, DOTP, and ESBO, are currently used in flexible PVC applications for food packaging and processing. The aim of this review is to summarize the available toxicity, migration, and human biomonitoring data.
  • What is a safe alternative to ortho-phthalate plasticizers for PVC?
  • DEHT, DINCH, and DIBA are marketed as safer alternatives to ortho-phthalate plasticizers for PVC and other polymers.
  • Why are lower molecular weight ortho-phthalates being replaced in plastic products?
  • Lower molecular weight ortho-phthalates are being replaced in plastic products due to toxicity concerns, but toxic hazards of and exposures to replacement ortho-phthalates and other plasticizers are poorly understood.
