Di(2-ethylhexyl) malate

Description:
Di(2-ethylhexyl) malate, with the CAS number 56235-92-8, is an ester derived from malic acid and 2-ethylhexanol. This chemical compound is characterized by its clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid form, exhibiting low volatility and a relatively high boiling point. It is known for its excellent solvency properties and is often used as a plasticizer in various polymer applications, enhancing flexibility and durability. Di(2-ethylhexyl) malate is also recognized for its low toxicity and is considered a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional phthalate plasticizers. Its chemical structure includes two 2-ethylhexyl groups attached to the malate backbone, contributing to its hydrophobic nature. Additionally, it has good thermal stability, making it suitable for use in high-temperature applications. The compound is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which is typical for many esters. Overall, di(2-ethylhexyl) malate is valued in industrial applications for its performance and safety profile.
