Plasticizers - Chemical Economics Handbook (CEH) | S&P Global - IHS Markit
Mainland China is the singlelargest plasticizer market in the world, accounting for over half of world consumption in 2025; it also has the highest forecast consumption growth during the next few years, spurred by increased plasticizer consumption in goods for both domestic and export markets.

With such a diverse range of applications, the plasticizers market can be volatile as it reacts to consumer trends, seasonality and regional supply. Buyers, sellers and traders must act quickly to make the most of market opportunities. This means constant access to the most current prices and data is key.
Palatinol DOTP
Palatinol. DOTP. Palatinol DOTP can be used in a broad range of applications as an alternative to general purpose ortho-phthalates, where good processing characteristics are needed and the finished product requires improved low temperature flexibility and low volatility. Palatinol DOTP is approved and certified by international regulatory
Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
Dioctyl Terephthalate (DOTP, DEHT) Plasticizer Molecule Phthalates appear virtually colorless with a faint odor. They have limited solubility in water but are miscible in many of the organic solvents (mineral oil etc.) Phthalate Plasticizers Benefits & Limitations Phthalate Plasticizers Applications
Health, Eco Concerns Give Non-Phthalate Plasticizers a Push
DOTP from Eastman has been available for several decades as Eastman 168, and the company claims it is the market-leading non-phthalate plasticizer for PVC, offering performance equal to or better than most non-phthalates. It offers good performance properties, optimal low-temperature flexibility, and non-migration properties.
- Why did plasticizer prices rise sharply in Q1 2022?
- Plasticizers prices rose sharply in Q1 2022 as a result of the sharp rise in crude oil prices and improved downstream demand. The price of dioctyl phthalate averaged 1875 USD/MT towards the end of first sector. The increase in upstream value prices and the strengthening domestic market demand were the main factors influencing this price shift.
- Why are plasticizer prices rising in Asia-Pacific?
- Asia The price trend for plasticizers showed an upwards trend in the the Asia-Pacific region during the first quarter owing to the domestic polymer segment's increased demand for the product as a result of better offtakes from China’s construction sector.
- What are plasticizers used for?
- Plasticizers make materials more malleable and less brittle by lowering the intermolecular tensions between polymer chains, which lowers the glass transition temperature. In addition to improving the flexibility and elasticity of materials, plasticizers are essential in products like PVC pipes, cables, and vinyl flooring. Plasticizers Price Chart
