China and Germany are the leading exporters of Di-N-Octyl Phthalate (CAS 117-84-0), collectively accounting for over half of global export value in 2023–2024, while the United States, India, and South Korea represent the largest importers. Di-N-Octyl Phthalate prices have remained relatively stable amid steady demand from plasticizer applications in PVC production. Export volumes from China increased modestly year-on-year through 2024, while EU-based exports—led by Germany—showed slight contraction, reflecting ongoing regulatory scrutiny and substitution trends in certain end uses.
Di-N-Octyl phthalate (DNOP) is a colorless to pale yellow, oily liquid with low volatility and a faint, characteristic odor. It is an aromatic ester, specifically a dialkyl phthalate, synthesized from phthalic anhydride and n-octanol. DNOP is primarily used as a plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other polymers, imparting flexibility, durability, and low-temperature performance. Its main application areas include wire and cable insulation, flooring, automotive interiors, and industrial hoses—particularly where enhanced migration resistance and processing stability are required. It is also employed as a solvent and processing aid in coatings, adhesives, and sealants.
Dioctyl phthalate is used as a plasticizer in various plastic materials.
