Abstract
A biobased plasticizer and a surface covering are disclosed. The biobased plasticizer includes an ester formed as a reaction product of a furan derivative selected from the group consisting of furoic acid, furfural and furfuryl alcohol reacted with a carboxylic acid or an alcohol, or includes an ester formed as a reaction product of a biobased aromatic compound and a biobased aliphatic compound. The surface covering is plasticized with a composition comprising an ester formed as a reaction product of a functionalized aromatic heterocyclic compound reacted with a carboxylic acid or an alcohol.
