Publication number: 20070282042Abstract: The invention consists of esters of anhydrosugar alcohols useful as plasticizers for polymeric compounds. Specifically, esters are formed of bis-anhydrohexitols, such as isosorbide, isomannide and isosiditide, and used as substitutes for the phthalate-based plasticizers in common use. The bis-anhydrohexitols are preferably produced from biological sources.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2006Publication date: December 6, 2007Inventor: Anthony East
