Development demand for environmentally friendly plasticizers

In recent years, with the improvement of environmental awareness in various countries around the world, plastic products such as medicine and food packaging, daily necessities, toys, etc. have put forward higher purity and cleanliness requirements for main plasticizers. Environmentally friendly plasticizers have won a broad market and received more and more attention. However, the main plasticizers currently produced by domestic companies make it difficult to meet environmental protection requirements in many functions, especially cleanliness and low toxicity.

As a new type of green and environmentally friendly plastic plasticizer, citric acid ester products are non-toxic and odorless. They can replace traditional phthalate plasticizers and are widely used in food and medical instrument packaging, cosmetics, daily necessities, toys, military supplies and other fields. They are also important chemical intermediates. Among them, acetyl citrate has better functions and wider uses. It is not only a non-toxic and odorless green plastic plasticizer, but also can be used as a polyvinylidene chloride stabilizer and a modifier for film and metal bonding. Its adhesive still has strong bonding force after being immersed in water for a long time.
