Dibutyl Phthalate Production Cost Reports

Dibutyl phthalate production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Dibutyl phthalate production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Dibutyl phthalate. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

 
Dibutyl phthalate (C16H22O4) or di-n-butyl phthalate is a phthalate ester which is the diester derived from the formal condensation of the carboxy groups of phthalic acid with two molecules of butan-1-ol. It is a phthalate ester and a diester that's functionally linked with butan-1-ol. It is a chemical compound which is organic in nature and is found in cloves. It is a man-made chemical mainly added to chemicals and plastics.

DBP is a colourless, oily liquid with a weak odour. It has a solubility in fat and water as well as in many organic solvents, like ether, alcohol, and benzene. It is not extremely volatile and doesn't readily vaporise into the atmosphere. It is a ubiquitous environmental contaminant which is harmful to humans.

It functions as a metabolite, a teratogenic agent, an environmental contaminant, a plasticiser, and an EC 3.2.1.20 (alpha-glucosidase) inhibitor. It has slightly low acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) toxicity. Its respective melting, boiling, and flash points are -35°C, 340°C and 171°C. It has a molecular weight of 278.35 g/mol.

Dibutyl phthalate is used to make flexible plastics and plasticisers, which are widely employed in a wide range of consumer products. In plastics it is used to keep them soft. As an additive, its added to adhesives or printing inks, elastomers, lacquers, perfume oil solvents, nail polish, explosives, resin solvents, and paper coatings, which furthers the market growth.

It's also used as an ectoparasiticide and as a solid rocket propellant. Also, it finds application in a wide range of products that are boosting its industry's development, including raincoats, shower curtains, bowls, food wraps, vinyl fabrics, car interiors, floor tiles, and many other products.
