Di-Octyl Phthalate (DOP)

Di-Octyl Phthalate

In compliance with industrial norms, we manufacture premium quality Di-Octyl Phthalate. This is the most widely used general purpose plasticizer for cellulose nitrates, polyvinyl chloride and other copolymers of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate. This is known for features such as compatibility, low volatility, resistance to heat and UV rays, flexibility, low temperature flexibility and low water extraction. DOP also display excellent electrical properties. This is used for manufacturing leather clothes, raincoats, footwear compounds and other products. This is insoluble in water but miscible in mineral oils.
