Abstract: A method for producing a composition of diesters, includes a step including the esterification of 1,4:3,6-dianhydrohexitol by a composition of carboxylic acids, the composition including: at least an acid having formula C7H15COOH (X) and an acid having formula C9H19COOH (Y), the mass ratio (X)/(Y) varying between 10/90 and 90/10.

Abstract: Disclosed is a composition that can rapidly plasticize polymers, including, in relation to the total mass of (A) and (B): between 0.1 and 99 mass-% of at least one ester of 1,4:3,6-dianhydrohexitol (A), having a molar mass varying between 255 and 345 g·mol?1 and selected from among monoesters and diesters of isosorbide, isomannide and isoidide; and between 1 and 99.9 mass-% of at least one compound (B) having a molar mass greater than 345 g·mol?1 and selected from among the esters of 1,4:3,6-dianhydrohexitol, the esters of cyclohexane polycarboxylic acid, the esters of phthalic acid, and glycerol esters. Also disclosed is a method for the production of a plasticized object using constituents (A) and (B), as well as to the use of the ester compound (A) as a polymer gelification accelerator.

Abstract: Process for preparing a composition based on a synthetic polymer includes: introducing, into a reactor containing a softened or molten synthetic polymer, a non-plasticized starchy component and a plasticizer of the latter; and kneading the mixture obtained under conditions sufficient to obtain the plasticization of the starchy component by the plasticizer, and a homogeneous mixture of the synthetic polymer and of the plasticized starchy component. The reactor may especially be a co-rotating or counter-rotating single-screw or twin-screw extruder, for example a co-rotating twin-screw extruder. The synthetic polymer may advantageously be chosen from the group including polyethylenes (PE) and polypropylenes (PP), which are functionalized or unfunctionalized, polyamides (PA), thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU), styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene (SEBS) copolymers, preferably that are functionalized, amorphous polyethylene terephthalates (PETG) and blends thereof.
