Plasticized PLA plastic films are being increasingly used in, among others, packaging and
agriculture sectors in an attempt to address the rapid growth of municipal waste. The present …

The demand for 2-ethylhexanol is rising in several sectors, yet this chemical is actually
almost exclusively produced from petroleum resources, calling for sustainable alternatives …

Biobased multifunctional plastic additives not only overcome the toxicity and non-
degradability of phthalates but also provide multiple functions to polymers. In this study …

Biobased multifunctional additives are favored by industry due to their significant application
advantages in the modification of poly (lactic acid)(PLA). In this study, a novel …

The current market for poly (vinyl chloride)(PVC) plasticizers is dominated by flammable
petroleum-based compounds, accounting for over 80% of the total share. Due to their high …

Polylactide (PLA) is a promising biosourced and biodegradable polymer substitute for
traditional petroleum-based products. Despite its recognized potential, its widespread …

This study demonstrates the potential of different cinnamate esters, namely methyl trans‐
cinnamate (MC), isobutyl cinnamate (IBC), allyl cinnamate (AC), and ethyl cinnamate (EC) …

Acetylated malic acid alkyl esters (AcMAE-Cn) with different alkyl chain lengths, as
alternative plasticizers for both poly (vinyl chloride)(PVC) and poly (lactic acid)(PLA), were …

Using bio-based plasticizers derived from biomass resources to replace traditional
phthalates can avoid the biotoxicity and non-biodegradability caused by the migration of …

Phthalate-based plasticizers are widely used to improve the flexibility and ductility of
engineering plastics. However, their hazardous toxicity and unsustainability have prompted …
