  • Are phthalates still used in plasticizers?
  • 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 . LMW phthalates are characterized by up to six carbon atoms in the main chain .
  • Which phthalates dominate the plasticizer market?
  • Chemical management varies considerably between regions and on a global scale. DEHP still dominates the plasticizer market . Therefore, target analytes were often restricted to DEHP and other LMW phthalates. House dust samples in China, for example, were strongly dominated by DEHP and DBP .
  • Do phthalates from recycled plastics affect human health?
  • We found no reviews of epidemiological human studies on the impact of phthalates from recycled plastics on human health. We recommend that future research should use urine samples as exposure measures, consider confounders in analyses and measure impacts on female reproductive systems.
  • Which non-phthalates are used in plasticizers?
  • Furthermore, the demand for alternative plasticizers is increasing. Today, the most frequently used non-phthalates are adipates, terephthalates (main representative DEHT) and Diisononyl 1, 2-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid (DINCH) . The monitoring programs used in this study covered a total of 26 analytes.
  • What is plasticizer phthalate?
  • Plasticizer phthalate is a pollutant. Its teratogenic or carcinogenic effects on human. Phytotoxic effects of phthalate and its transmission through food chain. Abatement of phthalate via bioremediation. Microbe-mediated soil-phthalate bioaugmentation approaches.
  • Do non-phthalates contribute to plasticizer burden in aquatic environments?
  • Recent investigations on plasticizer levels in sediments from non-industrial coastal areas in Korea are in good agreement with our data and confirm a low proportion of non-phthalates (3–10%) of the total plasticizer burden in aquatic environments [78, 85]. DINP and DEHP were the main phthalates.
