Four bio‐based plasticiser candidates were synthesised from epoxidised soybean oil (ESBO). Plasticised PVC samples were prepared with these plasticisers and analysed by TGA, DMA, tensile testing and SEM. The product of methoxylated polyethylene glycol and ESBO showed good performance across all tests.
