The function and uses of 2-ethylhexanol as a plasticizer

2-Ethylhexanol, commonly known as octanol in the plasticizer industry, is an important chemical raw material. Besides being used in the production of plasticizers, octanol is also used to produce octyl acrylate or as a surfactant, etc. Its main applications include: dioctyl phthalate (DOP), dioctyl adipate (DOA), trioctyl trimellitate (TOTM), other plasticizers, octyl acrylate, surfactants, lubricating oil additives, mining applications, diesel fuel additives, solvents and pharmaceuticals, rust inhibitors, and other chemicals. Octanol itself is a useful solvent, defoamer, dispersant, and lubricant. Its main derivatives are plasticizers such as dioctyl phthalate and octyl acrylate. Dioctyl phthalate, produced using octanol as a raw material, is the main plasticizer for PVC, accounting for approximately 95% of its total consumption in PVC applications.
