CAS 8013-07-8 Epoxidized Soybean Oil ESBO Epoxidized Soya Bean Oil Plasticizer And Stabilizer For Polymer

 

Product Description

• Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESBO)

  Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESBO) is a bio-based, non-toxic, and renewable chemical derived from soybean oil. It is produced by the epoxidation of soybean oil, where the double bonds in the fatty acids are converted into epoxide groups. ESBO is primarily used as a plasticizer and stabilizer in polymer formulations, especially in PVC (polyvinyl chloride) products. Its excellent heat and light stability, combined with its environmentally friendly nature, make it a popular choice in various industries.

  Description

  • Chemical Formula: C57H98O12 (varies depending on the oil composition)
  • Production Process: Soybean oil undergoes an epoxidation reaction with peracids or hydrogen peroxide to form oxirane rings on the unsaturated fatty acids.
  • Appearance: ESBO is typically a pale yellow, viscous liquid with little to no odor.
  • Key Functional Group: Epoxide group (oxirane ring), which enhances chemical reactivity and provides stabilizing properties.

  Features

  1. Eco-Friendly: Derived from renewable soybean oil, ESBO is a sustainable, biodegradable, and non-toxic alternative to synthetic plasticizers.
  2. Plasticizing Properties: Acts as a secondary plasticizer to improve the flexibility, durability, and softness of PVC products.
  3. Heat Stability: Stabilizes PVC by scavenging hydrochloric acid generated during thermal degradation.
  4. Light Stability: Protects polymers from photodegradation caused by UV exposure.
  5. Chemical Resistance: Improves resistance to chemicals and weathering in polymers.
  6. Non-Toxic: Suitable for applications with direct food or medical contact (FDA-approved in specific grades).
  7. Cost-Effective: Competitive pricing compared to other stabilizers and plasticizers.
  8. Good Compatibility: Mixes well with other stabilizers, plasticizers, and polymer systems.

  Applications

  Epoxidized soybean oil is a versatile additive used in numerous industries, primarily as a plasticizer and stabilizer:

  1. PVC Industry

  • Plasticizer: Enhances flexibility and softness in PVC products.
  • Stabilizer: Improves heat and UV stability, preventing discoloration and degradation.
  • Applications:
    • PVC films and sheets
    • PVC cables and wires
    • PVC pipes, profiles, and fittings
    • Vinyl flooring and wall coverings
    • Synthetic leather and upholstery

  2. Food Packaging

  • FDA-Approved Grades: Used in flexible food packaging materials like PVC wraps and films due to its non-toxic nature.

  3. Adhesives and Sealants

  • Acts as a stabilizer and plasticizer in adhesives, sealants, and caulks, improving flexibility and durability.

  4. Coatings

  • Used in epoxy and alkyd resin coatings to enhance chemical and UV resistance.

  5. Rubber Industry

  • Functions as a stabilizer and plasticizer in rubber compounds, improving elasticity and processing characteristics.

  6. Biodegradable Polymers

  • Used in bio-based polymer formulations to enhance flexibility and thermal stability.

  7. Other Applications

  • Lubricants: As a bio-lubricant or additive in industrial lubricants.
  • Agriculture: In pesticide formulations as a carrier or dispersant.

  Advantages of ESBO

  • Renewable and sustainable source material.
  • Enhances properties of polymers without compromising safety.
  • Reduces reliance on petroleum-based additives.
  • Regulatory compliance for food and medical applications.
