Plasticizers and Cardiovascular Health: Role of Adipose Tissue Dysfunction
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 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

The molecular mechanisms of plasticizers in rejuvenating oxidized asphalt: A preliminary study
Materials & Design, 2023 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
Materials & Design, 2023 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),

A Best-Evidence Review of Bio-based Plasticizer and the Effects on the Mechanical Properties of PLA
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2021 Polylactic Acid (PLA) plastics are currently used as food packaging material, textiles, and engineering plastics. However, PLA has its weaknesses, such as high brittleness and low toughness, limiting its application.

Integration of Biological Synthesis & Chemical Catalysis: Bio-based Plasticizer trans-Aconitates
Green Carbon, 2023 Plasticizers are essential to reduce processing difficulties and improve plastic properties. However, petroleum-based phthalate plasticizers, which are mostly used at present, urgently require alternatives due to their confirmed and serious health risks.

UV light impact on phthalates migration from children’s toys into artificial saliva [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2022 Phthalates has been widely used in children’s toys as plastic plasticizers and softeners. Therefore, attention should be paid to plastic toys, especially those that children can put in their mouths.

Esters of Cinnamic Acid as Green Plasticizers for Polylactide Formulations with Improved Ductility
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, 2023 This study demonstrates the potential of different cinnamate esters, namely methyl trans‐cinnamate (MC), isobutyl cinnamate (IBC), allyl cinnamate (AC), and ethyl cinnamate (EC), as environmentally friendly plasticizers for polylactide (PLA). Plasticized
