Plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) was fabricated using epoxidized soybean oil (ESBO) as a secondary bioplasticizer with dioctyl phthalate (DOP). The PVC/MFA/CB composites were prepared by melt mixing of the plasticized PVC with modified fly ash (MFA), carbon black N330 (CB), and polychloroprene (CR) in a Haake Rheomix mixer using a rotation speed of 50 rpm at 175°C for 6 min and then compressed by Toyoseiki pressure machine under 15 MPa. The effect of ESBO content on morphology, melt viscosity, tensile properties, and flame retardancy of PVC/MFA/CB composites was investigated. The obtained results showed that the incorporation of ESBO has significantly enhanced the processing ability, Young’s modulus, tensile strength, and elongation at break of the PVC/MFA/CB composites. The torque of PVC/MFA/CB composites was increased to approximately 12% when 50 wt% of DOP was replaced by ESBO. When ESBO was 20 wt% in comparison with DOP weight, the elongation at break, tensile strength, and Young’s modulus of the composites were increased to 48%, 24%, and 4.5%, respectively. Correspondingly, thermogravimetric analysis results confirmed that ESBO had improved the thermostability of the PVC composites. The ESBO have potential as a secondary bioplasticizer replacement material for DOP owing to their better thermomechanical stability.

Abstract 1. 1,3-Butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymers were mill-mixed with benzothiazoyl disulfide, sulfur, litharge, and vinyl resins, such as Vinylite (VYNW), and Saran and cured to compounds with good tensile strength, modulus, hardness, solvent resistance, and blocking temperature. 2. Results show that higher acrylonitrile type of copolymers give cured Vinylite-rubber blends with higher tensile strength, higher 100 per cent modulus, and greater ultimate elongation to break than low acrylonitrile copolymers. 3. The low temperature properties of the cured blends improve as the acrylonitrile content of the synthetic rubber is reduced. 4. An effective cure at 287° F is obtained in 15 to 30 minutes by using 2 parts of accelerator and 2 parts of sulfur per hundred parts of 1,3-butadieneacrylonitrile type copolymer-Vinylite blends. Added amounts of sulfur, and accelerator did not improve the properties or decrease the cure time at 287° F. 5. Some of the cured blends studied are free of tackiness at temperatures as high as 230° F. 6. Some stabilizers for vinyls tested as well as sodium acetate can be used to activate sulfur cures in 1,3-butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer-Vinylite blends to formulate light-colored transparent products.

Hydration-active steel slag and slag micropowder were used as inorganic fillers with silane coupling agent (KH550) to prepare wheat straw/polyvinyl chloride wood-plastic composites (WPCs) by extrusion molding. A 35-day immersion and a pre-immersion test were carried out to analyze the influence of steel slag and slag micropowder on the physical and mechanical properties of the WPCs under wet conditions. Results showed the following: (1) KH-550 exhibited a good surface modification effect on the activated steel slag and slag micropowder, (2) an increase in the activated steel slag and slag micropowder content could effectively reduce the percent water absorption of the WPCs by 20% to 25% and the expansion by 20% to 24%, respectively, compared with the control group, but had a limited effect on the tensile strength retention, and (3) pre-immersion could effectively induce the synergistic reinforcement effect of the active fillers, resulting in reaching the saturated water absorption within 20 days. The water absorption and tensile strength were respectively 18% to 25% lower and 1.5% to 3% higher than those of the composites without pre-immersion. The results of this study could provide experimental data and theoretical references for the influence of hydration-active inorganic fillers on WPC properties.

The samples were modified by using chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) to increase the toughness and using dioctyl phthalate (DOP) to increase the plasticity. The tensile strength and breaking elongation of the samples were studied by changing the chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) and dioctyl phthalate (DOP) contents and the hot-pressing temperature. It was shown by the test results that, with the increase of chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) and dioctyl phthalate (DOP) contents, the tensile strength of the samples was decreased while the breaking elongation was increased. By increasing the hot-pressing temperature, the blending effect between polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) as well as the mechanical performance of the samples were increased, however, over-high hot-pressing temperature would result in plasticizer precipitation.

To explore the properties of wood-plastic composites (WPCs) used in maritime climates, four different plant fibers (bamboo, rice straw, wheat straw, reed straw), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) were used to prepare WPCs through extrusion. The composites were subjected to either seawater immersion + xenon lamp aging or deionized water spray + xenon lamp aging. The mechanical properties (tensile strength, flexural strength, impact strength), color change, and water absorption performance were analyzed. The plant fibers were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and the microstructures of the surfaces were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The reed fiber had the highest crystallinity; reed/PVC composites had good interface with the plastic matrix, less internal defects, and the best comprehensive performance, with a tensile strength, bending strength, and impact strength of 25.4 MPa, 34.4 MPa, and 4.30 KJ·m-2, respectively. The simulated seawater immersion + xenon lamp aging reduced the performance of wood-plastic composites, destroyed the quality of the combination of plant fibers and plastic matrix, and created internal defects. The comprehensive mechanical properties of reed/PVC composites were the best. The properties of bamboo/PVC composites decreased the least, with a decrease of less than 41.2%.

The use of triacetin as an alternative plasticizer to polyvinyl chloride (PVC) was studied in term of plasticizer efficiency and tensile properties before and after ageing. The efficiency of plasticizers was evaluated based on the glass transition temperature (Tg) and the hardness value of the compounds. The Tg and hardness of all PVC/DEHP/Triacetin compounds are lower than PVC/50DEHP and PVC/50Triacetin compounds indicating synergistic plasticisation effect between both DEHP and Triacetin within the PVC compounds. The low molecular weight and chemical structure of triacetin are believed to contribute to the highest tensile strength, elongation at break and modulus of the PVC/triacetin compared with PVC/DEHP and PVC/DEHP/triacetin compounds. However, the migration ability of the triacetin plasticizer is believed to result in the biggest changes of the tensile properties of PVC compounds plasticized with triacetin before and after ageing.

The work is devoted to the study of the effect of magnesium hydroxide modified with a phosphorus boron-containing oligomer (PBO) on physical and mechanical properties and the reduction of combustibility of compositions based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Tests have shown that the addition of modified magnesium hydroxide to the polyvinyl chloride compositions provides a material of reduced flammability while providing improved tensile strength and hardness.

Abstract The flexibility of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) materials is crucial in the production of urine bags and urinary tubing. However, the combination and concentration of plasticizers offers a variation of the plasticizing efficiency to the PVC matrix. In this study, several types of plasticizers, namely dioctyl adipate (DOA), diisononyl phthalate (DINP), dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) and epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) were added into the PVC matrix to enhance the flexibility of PVC compounds. Increasing the plasticizer loading level improved elongation at break of PVC compounds, whereas the tensile strength, hardness and specific gravity deteriorated. In addition, DOA added to PVC compounds exhibited the highest plasticizing effect with the highest elongation at break results at lower percentages of plasticizer (≤50%). This is due to the linear chain of the DOA plasticizer promoting the slippage effect of polymer chains during stretching and thus imparting a higher flexibility. In addition, a higher loading level of plasticizer in PVC compounds also produced a marginal increment on the crystallinity and thermal stability of PVC compounds. Overall, DINP/DOA added to PVC compounds exhibited the highest flexibility effect (elongation at break) at higher percentages, but lowered tensile strength and crystallinity.
