## Abstract

The present invention relates to a plasticizer composition, a resin composition and methods for preparing thereof, and, by improving poor physical properties having been caused by structural limitation, provides a plasticizer capable of improving physical properties such as plasticizing efficiency, a migration property, tensile strength, an elongation rate, stress migration and light resistance required for sheet formularization when used as a plasticizer of a resin composition, and a resin composition comprising the same.
