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.
BASF begins production of Palatinol DOTP plasticizer at its
HOUSTON, TEXAS, July 18, 2017 – BASF started the production of Palatinol DOTP (dioctyl terephthalate), a general purpose plasticizer, at its Pasadena, Texas facility, with a nameplate capacity of 60,000 metric tons per year. The plant enables BASF to respond to the growing demand for non-ortho-phthalate plasticizers in North America, and strengthens its position as a reliable source for DOTP.
Bis(2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate
This colorless viscous liquid is used for softening PVC plastics and is known for chemical similarity to general purpose phthalates such as DEHP and DINP, but without any negative regulatory pressure. It possesses very good plasticizing properties and may be used as a direct replacement for DEHP and DINP in many applications. Production [ edit]
