CPSC Staff Statement on University of Cincinnati Report
Di(2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate (DEHT) is a U.S. EPA high production volume chemical, with production above 50 million pounds/year in the U.S. (SCENIHR, 2008). Because it can be used as a substitute for DEHP, and other regulated or restricted plasticizers, consumption volume is increasing.
Dioctyl terephthalate = 96 6422-86-2 - Sigma-Aldrich
Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) is a plasticizer that can be prepared by alcoholysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) with isooctyl alcohol. Application DOTP can form a composite blend with polyaniline (PANI)-ethyene dimethacrylate (EDMA), which can be used in the fabrication of conductive films.
Bis(2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate
Bis (2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate commonly abbreviated DEHT (Dioctyl terephthalate or DOTP), is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 4 (CO 2 C 8 H 17) 2. It is a non- phthalate plasticizer, being the diester of terephthalic acid and the branched-chain 2-ethylhexanol, which is referred to as octyl.
What about "non-phthalates"? | ExxonMobil Product Solutions
DOTP (DEHT) was developed in 1949 and patented in 1953 by ExxonMobil but never commercialized for a good reason. Because of its poor compatibility with PVC, the company decided NOT to commercialize DOTP (DEHT) and shift its focus to other, more reliable solutions. This resulted in the development of Jayflex DIDP and DINP plasticizers.
Terephthalates - Plasticisers - Information Center
Terephthalates Terephthalates are esters of tere-phthalic acid such as the 1,4 benzenedicarboxilic acid ester known as DEHTP or DOTP which offers low temperature performance, better resistance to soapy water extraction and low volatility.
- What is DEHT (Dioctyl terephthalate)?
- Bis (2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate commonly abbreviated DEHT (Dioctyl terephthalate or DOTP), is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 4 (CO 2 C 8 H 17) 2. It is a non- phthalate plasticizer, being the diester of terephthalic acid and the branched-chain 2-ethylhexanol, which is often generically referred to as octyl.
- What is a standard state of terephthalate?
- Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). Bis (2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate commonly abbreviated DEHT (Dioctyl terephthalate or DOTP), is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 4 (CO 2 C 8 H 17) 2.
- Who sells Dioctyl terephthalate (CAS 6422-86-2)?
- Global ( 411)Suppliers J & K SCIENTIFIC LTD. Dioctyl terephthalate (CAS 6422-86-2) information, including chemical properties, structure, melting point, boiling point, density, formula, molecular weight, uses, prices, suppliers, SDS and more, available at Chemicalbook.
- What is DEHT used for?
- It may also be used as a plasticizer with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to form solutions for artificial intravessel plaque. It is used primarily as a plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride and other polymers. DEHT is manufactured by the esterification of terephthalic acid and 2-ethylhexanol.
- What is terephthalic acid & 2-ethylhexanol?
- It is the ester of terephthalic acid and 2-ethylhexanol. It is a clear, colourless liquid with a slight odour, which is insoluble in water. DOTP can be used as a direct replacement for DOP and DINP in a range of applications due to its thermal resistance, excellent durability and transparency.
- What is DOTP used for?
- DOTP can form a composite blend with polyaniline (PANI)-ethyene dimethacrylate (EDMA), which can be used in the fabrication of conductive films. It may also be used as a plasticizer with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to form solutions for artificial intravessel plaque. It is used primarily as a plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride and other polymers.
