Dioctyl Terephthalate(DOTP)

Dioctyl Terephthalate (DOTP, CAS 6422-86-2) is an almost colorless low-viscosity liquid with molecular formula C₂₄H₃₈O₄ and molecular weight 390.52. It is an environmentally friendly plasticizer that does not contain phthalates, meeting the latest environmental protection standards of the European Union, USA and other developed countries. Compared with commonly used diisooctyl phthalate (DOP), DOTP offers superior heat resistance, cold resistance, low volatility, excellent electrical properties, and good flexibility.

Key Applications
  • 1. PVC Cable Materials
  • DOTP is widely used as a plasticizer for PVC wire and cable insulation materials. Its excellent electrical properties (volume resistivity 10-20 times that of DOP), heat resistance, and low volatility make it ideal for 70℃ heat-resistant cable materials that comply with IEC standards.
  • 2. Artificial Leather Production
  • DOTP serves as an excellent plasticizer for artificial leather membrane production, providing good durability, low-temperature softness, and extraction resistance. It enhances the flexibility and weatherability of leather products.
  • 3. PVC Plastic Products
  • Used in various PVC soft products including plastic films, plastic sandals, foam sandals, door and window seals, PVC profiles, soft boards, various soft and hard pipes, and decorative materials. DOTP improves flexibility and processability while maintaining environmental compliance.
  • 4. Synthetic Rubber and Nitrile Rubber
  • DOTP acts as a plasticizer for synthetic rubber, nitrile rubber, cellulose nitrate, and acrylonitrile derivatives. It enhances the flexibility and processing characteristics of rubber compounds.
  • 5. Paint and Coating Additives
  • Used as an additive in paint formulations to improve flexibility, durability, and processing properties. DOTP also serves as a lubricant additive and paper softener in various industrial applications.
  • 6. Medical and Food Contact Applications
  • Due to its low migration tendency and excellent toxicological profile, DOTP is suitable for medical tubing, food packaging materials, and other applications requiring high performance and low migration characteristics.
