A review of common non-ortho-phthalate plasticizers for use
A new publication by Kambia et al. (2025) reported some evidence of co-stimulation of estrogenic and androgenic receptors by one of the minor metabolites of DOTP, 5-hydroxy mono-2-ethylhexyl terephthalate (5-OH-MEHT), but not for the other metabolites (cf. Lessmann et al., 2016 for the human metabolism of DOTP). These in vitro and in silico
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.
Dioctyl Terephthalate - KH Chemicals
It possesses very good plasticizing properties and may be used as a direct replacement for low molecular weight phthalates (DOP) in many applications.

- What is DOTP Dioctyl terephthalate?
- TCC’s ChemFlexx DOTP Dioctyl terephthalate (bis (2-ethylhexyl) benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate), commonly abbreviated DOTP, is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 4 (C 8 H 17 COO) 2. It is the most important of the phthlte-free plasticizers, being the diester of terephthalic acid and the branched-chain 2-ethylhexanol.
- What is Dioctyl terephthalate?
- Dioctyl terephthalate is a very important phthalate-free plasticizer for PVC, preferred over low-chain and ortho-phthalate plasticizers as it is considered a safer alternative due to its low toxicity. If you have any questions, you can leave a message here, we will contact you within 24 hours
- Is Dioctyl terephthalate a phthalate-free plasticizer?
- It is a clear, colourless liquid with a slight odour, which is insoluble in water. Dioctyl terephthalate is a very important phthalate-free plasticizer for PVC, preferred over low-chain and ortho-phthalate plasticizers as it is considered a safer alternative due to its low toxicity.
