The Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) of the State of California’s Environmental Protection Agency, which decides which chemicals need to be labeled as a carcinogen or reproductive toxicant under Proposition 65, has announced that DINP (diisononylphthalate) is now included on the list.
Frontiers | Effects of Di-Isononyl Phthalate (DiNP) on
Di-isononyl phthalate (DiNP) is a plasticizer reported to elicit hormone-like activity and disrupt metabolism and reproduction in fish and other vertebrates. In general, phthalates have been used at high concentrations beyond reported environmental levels to assess their adverse effects on fish gonadal physiology. The present study exposed adult female zebrafish to a wide range of DiNP
DINP plasticizer | ExxonMobil Product Solutions
Jayflex DINP plasticizer is the largest-volume general-purpose high-molecular-weight plasticizer for PVC , providing the opportunity for cost savings with a good balance of properties. As shown below, it is an excellent substitute for Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DOP) in most flexible PVC applications.
INSPITE OF BEING PHTHALATE PLASTICIZERS, WHY DINP
DINP and DOTP are perfect plasticizers for replacing DOP: DINP (Di-Iso-Nonyl Phthalate) and DOTP (Di octyl terephthalate), have the same softening effect as DOP (efficiency factor 1.03). At...
