DOP

Type: Plasticizer (Dioctyl Phthalate)

Development / Applications

DOP is a plasticizer used in PVC compounds and other polymers such as SBR. Its use is geared towards industrial applications without specific regulatory restrictions on DOP: footwear, plastic laminates and fabrics, plastisols, sealants, industrial profiles, technical hoses, industrial films, cable coatings, and automotive accessories, among others. It is NOT recommended for toys, childcare products, food contact, or medical applications—in these industries, DOTP or TOTM should be used instead. It serves to solvate PVC and thus provide flexibility to finished products. It is one of the most common plasticizers in the PVC industry and is preferred for its ease of handling and easy absorption during the mixing process.
