A review of common non-ortho-phthalate plasticizers for use
Plasticizers in PVC are not covalently bound to the resin, so they can migrate or be extracted; however, loss of plasticizer by migration or extraction depends on a number of factors such as compatibility of the plasticizer with the polymer matrix, the respective aqueous and fat solubility, and other physical and chemical properties depending
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.
Palatinol DOTP
Palatinol DOTP can be used in a broad range of applications as an alternative to general purpose ortho-phthalates, where good processing characteristics are needed and the finished product requires improved low temperature flexibility and low volatility.

TI/N-CPN/IP Palatinol DOTP e / April 2025 Page 3 of 4 Palatinol DOTP . Internal . Description . Palatinol DOTP is a plasticizer based upon 2-Ethylhexanol. It is compatible with both homopolymer and copolymer vinyl resins. Palatinol DOTP is used primarily to plasticize vinyl resin where good processing characteristics are needed and
Synthesis and properties of castor oil based plasticizers
The synthetic plasticizers were added to PVC as the main plasticizer, and the properties of these PVC blends were investigated and compared to the commercial plasticizers DOTP and ESO. Tensile properties showed that the tensile strength and elongation at break of the PVC sample plastified by EACO were 18.5 and 10.0% higher than that of DOTP
- What is a DOTP plasticizer?
- Its primary function is to enhance the flexibility, durability, and workability of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) products while offering several advantages over traditional phthalate-based plasticizers. DOTP is known for its excellent thermal stability, low volatility, and high plasticizing efficiency.
- What is di-octyl terephthalate (DOTP)?
- Di-Octyl Terephthalate (DOTP) is a versatile and environmentally friendly plasticizer widely used in various industries. Its primary function is to enhance the flexibility, durability, and workability of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) products while offering several advantages over traditional phthalate-based plasticizers.
- What is DOP plasticizer used for?
- Its volume resistivity is ten-twenty times of DOP’s. Good plasticating effect and low volatility on cable materials makes it be widely used on the heat-resisting, high insulation product. It is the ideal plasticizer for the production of 70 degrees C. cable material and other volatility-resist PVC products.
- Is DOP a good plasticizer?
- NO. 1.DOTP is a sort of high-performance primary plasticizer with good electrothermal properties. Its volume resistivity is ten-twenty times of DOP’s. Good plasticating effect and low volatility on cable materials makes it be widely used on the heat-resisting, high insulation product.
- Why is DOTP a good material?
- Its molecular structure provides excellent thermal stability, low volatility, and resistance to migration, making it ideal for long-lasting products. The following are key properties of DOTP: Low Volatility: Ensures stability over time in PVC products. Excellent Durability: Resists degradation even in high-temperature environments.
- What are the properties of DOTP?
- The following are key properties of DOTP: Low Volatility: Ensures stability over time in PVC products. Excellent Durability: Resists degradation even in high-temperature environments. Eco-friendly: Free from phthalates, making it safer for humans and the environment.
