Product Description
Epoxidized Soyabean Oil (Secondary Plasticizer) Used In PVC Compound [Eiri-1500]
Epoxidized soybean oil, better known by its acronym, ESBO, is a plasticizer used in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics. It serves as a plasticizer and as a scavenger for hydrochloric acid liberated from PVC when the PVC undergoes heat treatment. A few EU surveys have shown fairly high levels of ESBO in foods, in which about 4% were above the current specific migration limit (SML) for ESBO of 60 mg/kg and about 15% of the samples were above 30 mg ESBO/kg food. High migration levels might lead to an intake that exceeds the existing Tolerable Daily Intake of 1mg/kg body weight/day. Epoxidized linolein a major component of ESBO. ESBO is manufactured from soybean oil through the process of epoxidation. The reason why vegetable oils are widely used as plasticizers is because the high numbers of carbon-carbon double bonds present in vegetable oils make them a good target for manipulation into some other useful products like in this case - from soybean oil into epoxidized soybean oil. The epoxide group is more reactive than double bond, thus providing a more energetically favorable site for reaction and making the oil a good hydrochloric acid scavenger and plasticizer. Usually a peroxide or a peracid is used to add an atom of oxygen and convert the -C=C- bond to an epoxide group.
