Determination of phthalate esters in environmental water by
By coupling magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), a reliable, sensitive and cost-effective method for simultaneous determination of five main PAEs including dimethyl phthalate (DMP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP), benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP), and dioctyl phthalate (DOP)
Performance assessment of polyvinyl chloride films
Dioctyl phthalate (DOP) is the most commonly used phthalate ester-based plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and accounts for more than 80% of the global market of PEs [46, 47]. Hence, the comparative study of the epoxidized product (ECLO) with dioctyl phthalate (DOP) was performed. 3.3.1. XRD analysis
Effects of Dioctyl Phthalate on Performance of Asphalt Sealant
Dioctyl phthalate (DOP) was introduced into asphalt-based sealant as a plasticizer in this work. Four kinds of sealants with different DOP content were prepared, and thermal stability and low-temperature performance of five samples with asphalt as a control group were evaluated by fluidity test, softening point test, thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), low-temperature
Phthalates leaching from plastic food and pharmaceutical
Phthalates are often used as plasticizers in the production of plastic food contact materials (FCMs) and pharmaceutical contact materials (PCMs), and having in mind that they are not bound to plastics, phthalates may easily leach from plastics under certain conditions. The aim of this research is determination of phthalates leaching potential from different plastic materials and quantitative
Development of determination of di-n-octyl phthalate (DOP
The result of the detection of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) samples showed that the immunoassay we developed had high-accuracy contrast with high-performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry analysis and it could be qualified to determine di-n-octyl phthalate (DOP) residue in PVC samples.
- What is Dioctyl Phthalate (DOP)?
- Dioctyl phthalate (DOP), also known as Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, is a colorless, odorless, and oily organic compound with the chemical formula of C 24 H 38 O 4. It is a famous plasticizer used for flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic production due to its low price.
- Is dioctyl phthalate soluble in water or oil?
- Dioctyl phthalate is soluble in oil but not water. The density of DOP is less than water, so it floats on the surface of water. Dioctyl phthalate accounts for more than 54% of the market share for plasticizers and is considered a high production volume chemical.
- What is dioctyl phthalate?
- Dioctyl phthalate is a high production volume chemical that accounts for more than 54% of the market share for plasticizers. It is produced by the esterification of phthalic anhydride with 2-ethylhexyl alcohol using a homogeneous acid catalyst such as concentrated sulfuric acid.
- What is DOP used for?
- DOP (Dioctyl Phthalate) is used in the production of synthetic rubber as a softening agent to make the synthetic rubber easier to rebound and harder to undergo form change under pressure.nDOP is also widely used in PVC and ethyl cellulose resins to make plastic film, imitation leather, electric wire, etc.
