About this product

Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP) is a versatile, colorless, and transparent oily liquid plasticizer, identified by CAS number 84-74-2 and molecular formula C16H22O4 (or C6H4(COOC4H9)2). Its primary function is to enhance the flexibility, workability, and durability of various polymer materials, making them easier to process and more resilient in application. DBP is characterized by its excellent compatibility with a wide range of resins, including PVC, nitrocellulose, and synthetic rubbers, contributing to improved elongation and reduced brittleness. While specific technical specifications and performance characteristics are dependent on the grade and formulation, DBP generally offers good solvating properties and a moderate evaporation rate. It is typically manufactured to high purity standards, ensuring consistent performance in demanding industrial processes. DBP finds extensive use in the manufacturing of flexible PVC products such as films, sheets, cables, and flooring, as well as in the production of lacquers, coatings, and adhesives. This chemical is a key ingredient for manufacturers of plastic goods, coatings, and adhesives, serving importers, wholesalers, and direct industrial end-users. Its established chemical properties and widespread industrial acceptance make it a reliable choice for international trade, offering a cost-effective solution for enhancing material performance across diverse manufacturing sectors.
