  • What is Diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP)?
  • Diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP) is a specialist plasticiser often used in combination with other high molecular weight phthalates. It is a fast fusing plasticiser which by itself it is too volatile for PVC applications. It is frequently used as a gelling aid in combination with other plasticisers.
  • What is Diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP)?
  • Diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP) is a common phthalate plasticiser, used primarily to soften Polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The typical content of DIDP in flexible PVC products is between 25 and 50% (w/w).
  • How is DBP used in Denmark?
  • No detailed assessment of the use of DBP in Denmark exists. The use of DBP in chemical products (preparations) registered in the Danish product register is shown in Table 2.5. The total consumption of DBP in declared preparations has decreased from 320 tonnes/year in 2000 to 71 tonnes/year in 2004.
  • What is DIDP in flexible PVC?
  • The typical content of DIDP in flexible PVC products is between 25 and 50% (w/w). It has properties of volatility resistance, heat stability and electric insulation and is typically used as a plasticiser for heat-resistant electrical cords, leather for car interiors, and PVC flooring (ECPI, 2009).
  • What percentage of phthalate plasticisers were used in the 1990s?
  • In the early 1990s, DEHP represented about 51% of the total phthalate plasticiser market in Western Europe. Investigations of the historic use of phthalates in Denmark in different products shows that DEHP represented a major part of the phthalate use in the 1990's and was to a large extent replaced by DINP around 2000.
  • Are BBP & DBP still used in printing inks?
  • According to CEPE (European Council of producers and importers of paints, printing inks and artists’ colours), DEHP, BBP and DBP are no longer used in printing inks by CEPE/EuPIA (European Printing Ink Association) members following its classification as reprotoxic.
