“…As a result, over the last couple of decades several vegetable oils have emerged in the plasticizer and stabilizer market. These mostly include epoxidized soybean oil, sunflower oil, linseed oil and others (Bouchareb and Benaniba, 2008;Karmalm et al, 2009aKarmalm et al, , 2009bGall and Greenspan, 1955;Bueno-Ferrer et al, 2010;Demertzis et al, 1991;Gibbons and Kusy, 1996;Gil et al, 2006;Baltacioglu and Balköse, 1999;Benaniba et al, 2001;Benecke et al, 2004). However, the most disturbing problem associated with the use of external plasticizers has been their evaporation, leaching and migration into their immediate surroundings and has remained largely unsolved until date (Kastner et al, 2012;Campbell and McConnell, 1980;Lau and Wong, 2000;Tsumura et al, 2001;Hammarling et al, 1998;Tsumura et al, 2002;Horn et al, 2004).…”
