Enhancing flexibility and durability of PVC with liquid epoxidized natural rubber: Innovative UV treatment to mitigate plasticizer migration
This manuscript elucidates the preparation and utilization of liquid epoxidized natural rubber (LENR) with 50 mol% epoxidation level (LENR50) as a polymeric plasticizer for poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), and further immobilization of the plasticizer in the plastic matrix through subsequent ultraviolet (UV)-curing treatment. The plasticizing effect induced by LENR50 at 50 wt% loading was evident with a reduction of Tg from a high of 72.0 to 11.4°C. Positive enhancements were also documented in the mechanical properties of the LENR50-plasticized PVC, specifically the big improvement in elongation at break and elastic modulus, from 106% to 430%, and from 646 to 7 MPa, respectively. The UV-treated PVC/LENR film also exhibited superior resistance to migration compared with formulations with conventional plasticizers such as di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) and triethyl-2-acetyl citrate (ATEC). A similar outcome was recorded in the leaching resistance test, where LENR50 had the best resistance to leaching in four different solvents (water, soap solution, ethanol, and toluene). The LENR50-plasticized PVC film recorded the lowest weight loss following 24 h immersion in both hydrophilic and lipophilic solvents. The findings from this study suggest that LENR50 could serve as an efficient bio-based polymeric plasticizer for PVC.
Highlights
LENR as bio-based polymeric plasticizer for PVC.
Significant reduction in Tg and elastic modulus of PVC plasticized with LENR.
UV treatment improved tensile strength and elongation at break of LENR/PVC film.
UV-treated PVC/LENR has superior plasticizer migration and leaching resistance.
