Dioctyl Phthalate DOP 99.5%, Ready For Shipment!

DOP is an important general-purpose plasticizer with a wide range of applications. The following are the main uses of DOP:

1. Plastic processing

Polyvinyl chloride resin (PVC) processing: DOP is one of the most commonly used plasticizers in PVC processing, which can significantly improve the softness, processability and durability of PVC. PVC plasticized with it can be used to manufacture artificial leather, agricultural films, packaging materials, cables and other products.

Other resin processing: In addition to PVC, DOP can also be used in the processing of polymers such as chemical fiber resin, acetate resin, ABS resin and rubber to improve the physical properties and processing performance of these materials.

2. Paints, dyes and dispersants

Paints and dyes: DOP can be used as a solvent or additive in paints and dyes to help improve the flow and uniformity of paints and dyes.

Dispersant: In coatings and pigment manufacturing, DOP is used as a dispersant to help pigment particles disperse evenly in solvents.

3. Electrical insulation materials

Wires and cables: In addition to all the properties of general-grade DOP, electrical-grade DOP also has good electrical insulation properties, so it is particularly suitable for the production of electrical insulation materials such as wires and cables.

4. Medical and health products

Medical-grade DOP: Mainly used to produce medical and health products, such as disposable medical equipment and medical packaging materials, etc. The products are required to be non-toxic, odorless and non-irritating.

5. Other uses

Mosquito repellent oil, polyvinyl fluoride coating: DOP can be used as a solvent for mosquito repellent oil and an additive for polyvinyl fluoride coating.

Fragrance solvent: In the fragrance industry, DOP can be used as a solvent for fragrances such as artificial musk.

Raw materials for organic synthesis: DOP can also be used as a raw material for the production of other organic compounds by transesterification, such as dicyclohexyl phthalate and high-carbon alcohol esters of phthalate.

6. Industry applications

PVC film: DOP plays an important role in the production of PVC film and is a key factor in the softness and processability of PVC film.

PVC artificial leather: In the manufacturing process of PVC artificial leather, DOP also plays a role in plasticizing and softening.

Anti-slip mats, foam mats: In recent years, the use of DOP in the production of anti-slip mats, foam mats and other products has also been growing rapidly.
