CAS 84-75-3: Dihexyl phthalate
Description:Dihexyl phthalate (DHP), with the CAS number 84-75-3, is an organic compound belonging to the phthalate family, commonly used as a plasticizer to enhance the flexibility and durability of plastics, particularly polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It is a colorless to yellowish liquid with a faint odor and is characterized by its relatively low volatility and high boiling point, which contribute to its stability in various applications. DHP is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, making it suitable for use in a variety of formulations, including adhesives, coatings, and sealants. Its chemical structure features two hexyl groups attached to the phthalate backbone, which influences its physical properties and performance as a plasticizer. While DHP is considered to have lower toxicity compared to some other phthalates, concerns regarding the environmental and health effects of phthalates in general have led to increased scrutiny and regulation of their use in consumer products.
