Diisononyl Phthalate(DINP) CAS 68515-48-0 / 28553-12-0 PVC Plasticizer
Diisononyl Phthalate (DINP, CAS No. 28553-12-0 / 68515-48-0) is a premier, high-molecular-weight general-purpose plasticizer engineered for flexible Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) formulations. Offering an optimal balance of processing efficiency, low volatility, and enhanced thermal stability, DINP serves as the ideal direct substitute for Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DOP / DEHP).
- Superior Efficiency & Durability: Lower volatility and higher permanent flexibility, extending the lifespan of finished PVC products.
- Cost Optimization: Provides a highly cost-effective plasticizing solution without sacrificing mechanical strength or processability.
- Process Compatibility: Excellent compatibility with PVC resins, delivering smoother extrusion and plastisol viscosity stability.

1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid Applications
- Wire & Cable Insulation: Widely used in 60℃-75℃ rated PVC power cables, automotive wiring harnesses, and flexible cords due to its low volatility and high electrical resistivity.
- Automotive & Flooring: Preferred for automotive Underbody Coatings (UBC), synthetic leather, vinyl flooring, and wall coverings requiring low-fogging performance.
- Coatings & Sealants: Functions as a primary plasticizer in PVC plastisols, polyurethane sealants, and acrylic coatings to enhance flexibility and moisture resistance.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is DINP?
A: Di isononyl Phthalate (DINP, CAS No. 28553-12-0) is a mass-produced, high-performance general-purpose plasticizer. It is a branched phthalate derived from the esterification of phthalic anhydride and isononyl alcohol. Industrially, it serves as an indispensable flexible agent in PVC formulations for cables, flooring, automotive coatings, and artificial leather, providing excellent heat stability, low volatility, and processability.
