Eco-friendly plasticizer characteristics - Guangyuan Ruifeng New Materials

Summary: Plasticizers are one of the world's largest-produced and consumed plastic additives. China has become the country with the largest production and consumption of plasticizers in Asia. With the increasing environmental awareness of countries around the world, plastic products such as medical and food packaging, daily necessities, and toys have put forward higher requirements for the purity and hygiene of the main plasticizer DOP. However, the main plasticizers currently produced by domestic enterprises are difficult to meet environmental requirements in many aspects, especially in terms of hygiene and low toxicity.

Plasticizers are one of the world's largest-produced and consumed plastic additives. China has become the country with the highest production and consumption of plasticizers in Asia. With the increasing environmental awareness of countries around the world, plastic products such as medical and food packaging, daily necessities, and toys have placed higher demands on the purity and hygiene of the main plasticizer DOP. However, the main plasticizers currently produced by domestic enterprises are difficult to meet environmental requirements in many aspects, especially in terms of hygiene and low toxicity. The European Union and Russia have successively discovered that some plastic toys imported from China contain toxic polyvinyl chloride plasticizers N-diisononyl phthalate (DINP) and diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP, or DOP).

Speaking of environmentally friendly plasticizers, we must mention synthetic plant esters, which are the most representative environmentally friendly plasticizers. As everyone knows, plasticizers are one of the world's largest-produced and consumed plastic additives. For a long time, plasticizers have been mainly phthalate-based products. However, with the increasingly widespread use of DOP in the food and pharmaceutical industries, people have paid more and more attention to its toxicity. Some have found that after people transfuse blood stored in polyvinyl chloride plastic bags, DOP products are found in the human body, especially in the lungs.

Environmentally friendly plasticizers are superior in many aspects. Taking synthetic plant esters as an example, it is a new type of environmentally friendly plasticizer extracted from various plants and esterified under the action of a series of catalysts to produce a new type of environmentally friendly, non-toxic plasticizer. The amount of synthetic plant ester used in PVC products is as high as 55 parts (100 parts of resin powder) without any exudation. The substitution rate is between 30%-100%. The effect is even better when used in combination with DOP and DBP. It has also passed SGS ROHS, PAHs, 17P, and REACH174 certifications. Its typical applications include: Synthetic plant esters are used as plasticizers for various products of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyurethane (PU), natural rubber (NR), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), nitrile rubber (NBR), and chloroprene rubber (CR). Granular type: cable material granules, transparent granules, hose granules. (can be exported to European countries). Dipping type: PVC disposable gloves and other dipping products. Extrusion type: profiles, connectors, pipes, weather-resistant and alkali-metal-resistant profiles, and blown films used in the automotive industry. Injection molding type: plastic sandals, foam sandals, etc. Foaming type: foamed soft and hard boards, foamed slippers. Coating type: artificial leather, inflatable products, protective cloth coatings, raincoats, bathroom mats, etc. Polyurethane: PU artificial leather, insulation materials, etc. Others: coatings, various adhesives.
