1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, 1,2-bis[2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethyl] ester

Description:

1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, 1,2-bis[2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethyl] ester, commonly known as di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional groups derived from phthalic acid. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a slightly oily texture. DEHP is primarily used as a plasticizer in the production of flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other polymers, enhancing their durability and flexibility. The compound is known for its low volatility and high molecular weight, which contribute to its effectiveness as a plasticizer. DEHP is also soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Due to its widespread use, it has raised environmental and health concerns, as it can leach from products and has been associated with endocrine-disrupting effects. Regulatory agencies have established guidelines for its use, particularly in consumer products, to mitigate potential risks to human health and the environment.

Phthalic acid, bis[2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethyl] ester

CAS: 117-85-1

Phthalic acid, bis[2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethyl] ester is a specialized industrial plasticizer, which is a type of additive used to enhance the flexibility and durability of polymer-based materials. It is derived from phthalic acid through esterification with ethylene glycol ether derivatives, resulting in a compound that effectively reduces the brittleness of plastic formulations by increasing their plasticity.
