Q1: Is DINP suitable for food contact applications?
In some regions, DINP is restricted for direct food contact. Check local regulations before use.
Q2: Can it fully replace DOP in formulations?
Yes, DINP is often used as a direct replacement in flexible PVC formulations.
Q3: Is DINP environmentally friendly?
DINP has lower environmental impact than traditional phthalates but is not fully bio-based.
