Application and product selection
Select DOTP against the complete formulation: target Shore hardness, resin, filler loading, processing temperature and service conditions. When replacing DOP or DINP, validate the dosage in a pilot run and ageing tests rather than assuming identical mechanical performance at the same loading.
- Flexible PVC cable sheathing and hose formulations
- Shoe soles, flooring and technical PVC parts
- Paint, coating and adhesive systems subject to compatibility validation
