Features & Benefits
- Advantages
- It is almost smellless.
- Its volume resistivity is much higher than any other DOP.
- It has less volatility due to less % of moisture & residual alcohol
Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Application
95% of DOP is used as a Plasticizer in PVC resins for fabricating flexible vinyl Product like :- vinyl upholstery, tablecloth, shower, curtain, raincoat, shoes, garden hoses, swimming pools liners, polymeric coating, cable coating, component of paper & paperboard, defoaming agents, surface lubricants, in order of importance.
The only significant non-plasticizer use for DOP is an replacement for polychlrinated biphenyls in dielectric fuild for electric capacitors.
The micelleneous use for DOP are :- as the solvent in erasable ink, as an acaricide for use in orchards, as an inert ingredient in pesticides, as an vacuum pump oil, in detecting leaks in respirators.
