Products Description of 2-Ethylhexanol CAS#104-76-7
2-Ethylhexanol, generally known as octanol in the plasticizer sector, is an important chemical feedstock. Beyond plasticizer production, it is used to synthesize octyl acrylate or serve as a surfactant. Its main derivatives include dioctyl phthalate (DOP), dioctyl oxalate (DOA), trioctyl trimellitate (TOTM), other plasticizers, octyl acrylate, surfactants, bone lubricating oil additives, mining chemicals, diesel fuel additives, solvents/preparations, and rust inhibitors. Octanol itself is a valuable solvent, defoamer, dispersant, and lubricant. Its product series are mainly plasticizers such as DOP and octyl acrylate, with DOP (using octanol as raw material) being the core plasticizer for PVC – accounting for about 95% of DOP’s total consumption in PVC applications.
