Hanwha Solutions' phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH offers
Eco-DEHCH is one of the most recognized phthalate-free plasticizer developed by a research team at Hanwha Solutions’ Chemical Division, providing eco-friendly alternative for hazardous dioctyl phthalate (DOP) and less-harmful but less-effective terephthalate like dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP).
Research progress of novel bio-based plasticizers and their
Phthalates were first appeared in 1920 and soon dominated the market of PVC plasticizers [ 6 ]. Until now, phthalates, such as di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), also known as dioctyl phthalate (DOP), are still the most used commercial PVC plasticizer, occupying over 70% of the market [ 7 ].

EcoFriendly Plasticizers IHS Chemical - IHS Markit
There are increasing concerns over the traditional plasticizers like dioctyl phthalate (DOP) on its potential migration out of PVC compounds and release to the environment or human body. The concerns have caused the industry to move towards more eco-friendly plasticizers.
Dioctyl phthalate = 99.5 117-81-7 - Sigma-Aldrich
Dioctyl phthalate is a non-volatile solvent mainly used as a plasticizer for polymers such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS) and polyisoprene (PI).

- Is Dioctyl terephthalate a phthalate-free plasticizer?
- It is a clear, colourless liquid with a slight odour, which is insoluble in water. Dioctyl terephthalate is a very important phthalate-free plasticizer for PVC, preferred over low-chain and ortho-phthalate plasticizers as it is considered a safer alternative due to its low toxicity.
- What is DOP dioctyl phthalate?
- DOP dioctyl phthalate, full name dioctyl phthalate, is a commonly used plasticizer with a chemical formula of C24H38O4. In its molecular structure, there are two ester groups that interact with each other through the conjugation of phthalic acid. It is a colorless, transparent liquid with good solubility and plasticizing properties.
- What is plasticizer phthalate based?
- Plasticizer is a chemical substance capable of making plastics softer, and phthalate is one of the most common materials to achieve it. However, phthalate-based plasticizer has often been blamed for disrupting the hormone system and thus been restricted from toys and furniture.
- Where is phthalate-free plasticizer eco-dehch produced?
- Hanwha Solutions’ Chemical Division announced that it quadrupled annual production of phthalate-free plasticizer Eco-DEHCH. Up to 6.5 tons of it will be produced every year at a petrochemical industrial complex in the southeastern port city of Ulsan, South Korea.
- What are the different types of plasticizers?
- 1. Plasticizer for PVC products: DOP is a commonly used PVC plasticizer, which can be used to prepare PVC pipes, sheets, films, artificial leather, floor materials, etc. 2. Rubber plasticizer: DOP can be used as a plasticizer for rubber to improve the flexibility and processability of rubber.
- Will Hanwha halt production of phthalate-based plasticizer DOP in 2022?
- Given the growing need for observing the ESG mandate around the world, Hanwha Solutions' Chemical Division is seeking to completely halt its production of phthalate-based plasticizer DOP within 2022.
