DINP Plasticizer High Performance PVC Additive by Gotrays

What is DINP (Diisononyl Phthalate)?

Diisononyl Phthalate (DINP) is a premier high-molecular-weight phthalate widely recognized as a versatile general-purpose plasticizer. It is engineered to provide exceptional flexibility and durability to polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other copolymers. Unlike lower-weight alternatives, DINP offers an optimal balance of processability and permanence, making it essential for demanding industrial applications ranging from wire and cable coatings to heavy-duty flooring.

Key Performance Advantages of Gotrays DINP

When we manufacture DINP, we focus on creating a plasticizer that outperforms standard options in critical environments. Our product offers distinct benefits that improve both the manufacturing process and the lifespan of your finished goods. By choosing Gotrays, you get a reliable additive designed to handle the stress of industrial applications.

Here is why our DINP stands out:

• Low Volatility Plasticizer: Our DINP exhibits significantly lower volatility compared to DOP. This results in less weight loss during high-heat processing and superior permanence, extending the service life of the final product.
• Cold Flex Properties: We ensure our DINP provides excellent low-temperature flexibility. It prevents PVC from becoming brittle or cracking in freezing conditions, making it essential for outdoor durability.
• Wire and Cable Insulation: With high volume resistivity and exceptional heat stability, our DINP is optimized for electrical applications, ensuring safe and durable cable sheathing.
• Anti-Migration & Efficiency: The chemical structure ensures better compatibility with PVC. This anti-migration feature keeps the surface of your product clean and improves processing efficiency, allowing for smoother extrusion and molding.

Common Industrial Applications for DINP

As a versatile general-purpose plasticizer, our DINP is the workhorse behind a wide range of durable flexible PVC products. Manufacturers globally rely on it because it offers better permanence and aging resistance than standard DOP, making it ideal for applications requiring a longer service life.

Wire and Cable Compounds

We supply DINP heavily for wire and cable insulation and sheathing. Its excellent electrical insulation properties and heat stability make it a top choice for cabling that needs to withstand electrical stress and environmental wear without becoming brittle.

Flexible PVC Flooring and Construction

In the construction sector, durability is non-negotiable. DINP provides the low volatility needed for flexible PVC flooring and wall coverings. This ensures the material resists shrinking and maintains its flexibility over years of heavy foot traffic.

Synthetic Leather and Coated Fabrics

For artificial leather, texture and longevity are critical. Our DINP acts as a vital synthetic leather additive, ensuring coated fabrics remain soft to the touch while resisting cracking and aging. It creates a high-quality finish for furniture, upholstery, and fashion accessories.

Automotive Parts and Footwear

From automotive parts like underbody coatings to rugged shoe soles, DINP delivers the mechanical strength required for daily abuse. Its superior low-temperature flexibility ensures that products like hoses and footwear don’t crack in cold weather.

DINP vs DOP: A Comparative Analysis

When deciding between DINP vs DOP, the choice often comes down to long-term performance and processing efficiency. While DOP has been the industry standard for years, our DINP (Diisononyl Phthalate) offers distinct advantages that make it a superior choice for demanding applications.

Volatility Differences and Product Lifespan

The molecular structure of DINP is heavier than DOP, resulting in significantly low volatility. This is crucial for product longevity and processing stability:

• Reduced Weight Loss: Less plasticizer evaporates during high-temperature processing (calendering or extrusion).
• Extended Service Life: The plasticizer stays embedded in the PVC matrix longer, preventing the end product from becoming brittle.
• Better Aging: We see superior resistance to heat and degradation compared to standard DOP, making it ideal for outdoor applications.

Density Variations and Volume Cost Savings

One often overlooked benefit is the density difference. DINP has a lower specific gravity ($0.972 – 0.977$ g/cm³) compared to DOP. Since you purchase raw materials by weight but often sell finished goods by volume (or per piece), this density advantage translates to real volume cost savings. You get more product volume per metric ton of DINP, effectively lowering your unit material costs while maintaining high-quality output.

Safety Profiles in Regulated Markets

As global regulations tighten, safety profiles become a priority for procurement. DINP is recognized as a safer general-purpose plasticizer for specific industrial uses where lower migration is essential. It provides a reliable alternative in markets moving away from DOP due to environmental concerns, offering a stable supply chain solution for regulated markets like automotive interiors and wire manufacturing.

Regulatory Compliance & Safety Standards

Navigating the complex landscape of chemical regulations is just as important as the physical properties of the plasticizer itself. We prioritize transparency and safety in our manufacturing process to ensure our DINP meets the stringent requirements of the global market.

REACH Compliant Plasticizer Status

For manufacturers exporting to Europe or operating within strictly regulated markets, compliance is key. Our DINP is produced with high purity ($ge 99.5%$) to align with global industrial standards. As a REACH compliant plasticizer alternative in many applications, DINP is often preferred over lower molecular weight phthalates due to its lower migration rates and better toxicological profile. We work closely with our partners to ensure all necessary registration and documentation support your supply chain requirements.

Understanding Proposition 65 and CPSIA Restrictions

While DINP is a superior general-purpose plasticizer for industrial uses like wire and cable insulation and flooring, we believe in being upfront about regional restrictions.

• Proposition 65: In California, products containing DINP may require specific warning labels.
• CPSIA: Restrictions apply specifically to children’s toys and childcare articles.

We assist our clients in understanding where DINP can be used freely—such as in automotive parts, construction materials, and industrial hoses—and where alternative formulations might be required.

Safe Handling and SDS Availability

Workplace safety is our top priority. Because our DINP features a high flash point ($ge 200^circ$C) and low volatility, it offers a safer processing environment compared to many volatile alternatives. However, proper handling is essential.

We provide a comprehensive Safety Data Sheet (SDS) with every shipment, detailing:

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) recommendations.
• Spill containment procedures.
• Emergency response protocols.
• Storage guidelines to maintain the $le 0.1%$ moisture content standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can DINP directly replace DOP in PVC formulations?

Yes, DINP is frequently used as a direct, higher-performance replacement for DOP (Dioctyl Phthalate). Because DINP has a higher molecular weight, it offers lower volatility and better permanence. This means your PVC products—like wire insulation or flooring—will resist aging and degradation longer than those made with standard DOP. While it is a general-purpose plasticizer, you might need to make slight adjustments to your PVC formulations to account for density differences, but the result is improved durability and cold flex properties.

Is Gotrays DINP suitable for plastisol applications?

Absolutely. Our DINP is highly effective in plastisol formulations. It provides excellent viscosity stability, which is critical for applications like synthetic leather, coated fabrics, and automotive underbody coatings. Using Gotrays DINP helps reduce weight loss during the curing process due to its low volatility, ensuring a consistent finish and quality in your final goods.
