Bis(2-ethylhexyl) Phthalate Usage and Synthesis

Chemical PropertiesCLEAR LIQUID
UsageDialkyl phthalate ester plasticizer used to import softness and flexibility to PVC products.
General DescriptionColorless to pale yellow oily liquid. Nearly odorless.
Air & Water ReactionsInsoluble in water.
Reactivity ProfileBis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate reacts with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing with alkali metals and hydrides. Incompatible with nitrates .
Health HazardInhalation can cause nausea and irritation of nose and throat. Contact of liquid with eyes or skin causes irritation. Ingestion can cause abdominal cramps, nausea and diarrhea.
