Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate
DEHP is the most common phthalate plasticizer in medical devices such as intravenous tubing and bags, IV catheters, nasogastric tubes, dialysis bags and tubing, blood bags and transfusion tubing, and air tubes. DEHP makes these plastics softer and more flexible and was first introduced in the 1940s in blood bags.
Bis(2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate
Bis (2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate. Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). 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
Plasticizer
Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate is a common plasticizer. Safety and toxicity [ edit ] Substantial concerns have been expressed over the safety of some polymer plasticizers, especially because some low molecular weight ortho-phthalates have been classified as potential endocrine disruptors with some developmental toxicity reported. [9]
Phthalate
This includes Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP or DOP), which has long been the most widely used phthalate, with commercial production dating back to the 1930s. [27] [28] In the EU, the use of DEHP is restricted under REACH and it can only be used in specific cases if an authorisation has been granted; similar restrictions exist in many other jurisdictions.
- What is bis 2 ethylhexyl phthalate?
- Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate is commonly used plasticizing agent for PVCs, which as such is a component of blood bank bags, surgical tubing, and other products including food wrappers and children’s toys. DEHP is commercially produced via esterification of phthalic acid anhydride and 2-ethylhexanol.
- What is the vapor pressure of bis 2 ethylhexyl phthalate?
- ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere (1), bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, which has a vapor pressure of 1.42X10-7 mm Hg at 25 °C (2), will exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the ambient atmosphere.
- What is Di 2 ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP)?
- Di (2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) is a benzenedicarboxilate ester which is the most widely used plasticizer to soften resins. DEHP is hydrolyzed into what many believe to be its toxic metabolite, mono (2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (MEHP), by lipase enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract.
- What is dioctyl phthalate?
- Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). ?
- ) Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate, diethylhexyl phthalate, diisooctyl phthalate, DEHP; incorrectly — dioctyl phthalate, DIOP) is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 4 (CO 2 C 8 H 17) 2.
- How is bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate exposed?
- Monitoring data indicate that the general population may be exposed to bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate via inhalation of ambient air, ingestion of food and drinking water, and dermal contact with household dust and products containing bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate. (SRC)
- Where was bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate found?
- RURAL/REMOTE: Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate was detected in rural air in College Station, TX, 1979 to 1980 at 0.77-3.60 ng/cu m (1). Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate was detected in the air of Pigeon Key, FL, the Gulf of Mexico, and the North Atlantic at 16.6, 1.2, and 2.9 ng/cu m, respectively (2).
