Hanwha Chemical Produces Next-generation Eco-friendly Plasticizers
The ECO-DEHCH has a high absorption rate that makes processing easier and when processing plastics, less material is used than using DOTP plasticizers. ECO-DEHCH also has high UV-stability and tolerance to cold, making its use perfect for outdoor products.
EcoFriendly Plasticizers IHS Chemical - IHS Markit
The concerns have caused the industry to move towards more eco-friendly plasticizers. The first trend is moving towards higher molecular weight and less migratory phthalates. PEP Report 62B reviews the technology for producing alternative plasticizers. Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) from terephthalic acid and 2-ethylhexanol [1]
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly Bioplasticizers
Bioplasticizers are derived mainly from biomass sources including agricultural products, it’s by-products and waste. Regardless of the biomass source, ideal bioplasticizers are expected to be...
Guide to Non-Toxic Vinyl Plank Flooring (& the Risks)
The most common plasticizer used now is Dioctyl Terephthalate (DOTP). Whether vinyl plank should be considered toxic depends on your threshold for toxins in the home and our knowledge is also limited by the current research and understanding of the new plasticizers – which we will discuss.
Health, Eco Concerns Give Non-Phthalate Plasticizers a Push
These two groups of non-phthalates have been given a green light for low plasticizer migration in medical-device components made of ABS, PC, PS, and acrylic that come in contact with PVC components. DOTP, HEXAMOLL DINCH IMPROVEMENTS DOTP and Hexamoll DINCH are two leading non-phthalate alternatives gaining significant ground.
- What is DOTP plasticizer?
- DOTP plasticizer is made of imported food-grade vegetable oil, which is hydrogenated and refined. It is a general-purpose green plasticizer and has passed ROHS, REACH and phthalate (ester) 17P certification. DOTP plasticizers show excellent durability, soapy water resistance and low-temperature softness in products. Because of its low volatility.
- What are the advantages of DOTP?
- Because of its low volatility. The use of DOTP can fully meet the temperature resistance grade requirements of wires and cables and can be widely used in cable materials resistant to 70°C (IEC standard of the International Electrotechnical Commission). The plastic products produced by DOTP can completely pass the EU ROHS certification.
- What is the market demand for non-phthalate plasticizers?
- At present, many manufacturers have begun to use non-phthalate plasticizers such as DOTP to replace phthalate plasticizers. Developments in various fields such as medical, packaging, construction, consumer goods, and automotive will drive the market demand for DOTP.
- What are the key drivers of the DOTP market?
- Developments in various fields such as medical, packaging, construction, consumer goods, and automotive will drive the market demand for DOTP. Accelerating the industrialization process, and increasing consumption of plastic raw materials, consumer goods, and packaging products will remain the key drivers for DOTP market growth.
