Abstract: Provided are compositions, processes for making, and processes for using mixed triglycerides as plasticizers. Triglyceride plasticizers can be produced by recovery of linear or branched C4 to C13 aldehydes from a hydroformylation product, oxidation to linear or branched C4 to C13 acids with oxygen and/or air, recovery of the resulting acids, combining the linear or branched C4 to C13 acid with benzoic acid, toluic acid or a combination thereof to form a mixed acid blend, and esterification of the mixed acid blend with glycerol, wherein the total carbon number of the triester groups ranges from 20 to 25 and includes from 1 to 2 aryl groups for greater than or equal to 45 wt % of the plasticizer. Such plasticizers can be phthalate-free and provide outstanding properties including a suitable melting or pour point, glass transition temperature, low volatility, increased compatibility, increased hydrolytic stability, and excellent low temperature properties in a range of polymeric resins.
