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.
Alcoholysis of polyethylene terephthalate to produce dioctyl
Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) is a new kind of green and non-toxic plasticizer. The traditional process to prepare DOTP is costly and complicated, thus it is very necessary to find an efficient and environmentally-friendly way to obtain DOTP.
Plasticizers - Chemical Economics Handbook (CEH) | S&P Global
Nonphthalate plasticizers are not based on phthalic acid, and have a different chemical structure and toxicological profile. These include terephthalates (the most common is dioctyl terephthalate [DOTP]), epoxy, aliphatics, trimellitates, polymerics, phosphates, and others.
Hanwha Chemical Produces Next-generation Eco-friendly
Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) plasticizers are used as an alternative, but done so at the expense of product quality. The new eco-friendly plasticizer ECO-DEHCH from Hanwha, however, is not short on quality and it is safe for humans.

- What is Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP)?
- Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) is a plasticizer that can be prepared by alcoholysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) with isooctyl alcohol. Dioctyl terephthalate is not classified as dangerous and can be expected to remain stable under normal storage and usage conditions.
- Is DOTP (DEHT) eco-friendly?
- To fully understand the environmental impact of a particular product, the entire life cycle needs to be considered: without data to support the claim, saying DOTP (DEHT) is “eco-friendly” is not accurate. DOTP (DEHT) was developed in 1949 and patented in 1953 by ExxonMobil but never commercialized for a good reason.
- 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.
