Plasticizers and Cardiovascular Health: Role of Adipose Tissue Dysfunction
Since the 1950s, the production of plastics has increased 200-fold, reaching 360 million tonnes in 2019. Plasticizers, additives that modify the flexibility and rigidity of the product, are ingested as they migrate into food and beverages. Human exposure

Urinary and circulatory levels of plasticizer metabolites and their associations with renal function: a cross-sectional analysis of the NHANES cohort [PDF]
Background Plasticizers used in consumer products raise concerns for nephrotoxicity; while DEHP is well characterized, evidence for DEHTP and DiNP—particularly their metabolites—remains limited.

The molecular mechanisms of plasticizers in rejuvenating oxidized asphalt: A preliminary study
Plasticizers are common additives used to enhance the flexibility and workability of polymer materials. Recent findings suggest a great potential for typical plasticizers being used as rejuvenators to recycle oxidized paving asphalts.

Study on compatibility mechanism of plasticizer and asphalt based on molecular dynamics
This work aims to reveal the compatibility mechanism of different plasticizers with the base asphalt using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. For this purpose, four kinds of plasticizers were chosen, namely dioctyl phthalate (DOP), dioctyl adipate (DOA),
