High Phthalates Panel Debunks Myths of DINP and DIDP
High Phthalates Panel Debunks Myths of DINP and DIDP in Plastic Food Wraps. WASHINGTON (October 27, 2025) – The American Chemistry Council’s (ACC) High Phthalates Panel issued the following statement in response to reports that fast-food items contain “phthalates” linked to health problems. “There is a growing myth about consumer

or ISO 9001, or compliance with the Principles of Good Laboratory Practice. Similarly, although the Guide has the title ‘Guide to Quality in Analytical Chemistry’ it is anticipated that it will also be of benefit to disciplines other than chemistry. For those working in microbiology, it should be noted that Eurachem has
Plasticizers: Types, Uses, Classification, Selection & Regulation
DINP, DIDP: High molecular weight ortho-phthalates Aliphatic dibasic acid Esters – These include chemicals such as glutarates, adipates, azelates and sebacates. They are made from aliphatic dibasic acids such as adipic acid and alcohols. Benzoate Esters – They are esterification products of benzoic acid and selected alcohols or diols.
Disposition and metabolism of diisononyl phthalate (DINP)
Authors:El-hawari, M., Lington, A., Stoltz, M., Baldwin, J., and Pallas, F.This abstract documented that DINP is rapidly metabolized and eliminated when

- What is DINP plasticizer?
- Quality guaranteed, find your speciality chemicals with ease. Diisononyl Phthalate (DINP) is a general use high molecular weight PVC Plasticizer which provides a good balance of cost savings and properties. DINP is a preferred replacement for DOP plasticizer, and is highly compatible with PVC and shows good permanence.
- What are Di-isononyl phthalate esters (dinps)?
- Di-isononyl phthalate esters (DINPs) are endocrine-disrupting chemicals and have replaced di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) as the major plasticizer for poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) products in recent years. Exposure marker discovery of DINPs is crucial, because of their high potential for human exposure and toxicity.
- Is DINP a pure substance?
- DINP is not a pure substance, but a complex mixture containing mainly C9-branched isomers, with mean formula C26H42O4 ... /In a good quality chromatogram/ up to 40 peaks are attributed to DINP ... (37 after partial distillation) ... 5 constituents may be considered as principal (from ca 6 to ca 20%).
- What is diisononyl phthalate (DINP)?
- Diisononyl phthalate (DINP) has been widely used in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) products and is ubiquitous as a substitute; however, its toxicity due to exposure remains to be determined.
- What is DINP used for?
- DiNP is primarily used to produce flexible plastics and has replaced di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) in some plastics, though not in medical products. DiNP is widely used in such products as toys, flooring, gloves, drinking straws, garden hoses, and in sealants used for food packaging.
- What is DINP phthalic acid (Diisodecyl phthalate)?
- DINP is typically a mixture of chemical compounds consisting of various isononyl esters of phthalic acid, and is commonly used in a large variety of plastic products. The European Union has set a maximum specific migration limit (SML) from food contact materials of 9 mg/kg food for the sum of diisononyl phthalates and diisodecyl phthalates.
