Dimethyl phthalate, a known endocrine disruptor and one of the phthalate esters (PAEs), is a ubiquitous pollutant.
Dimethyl phthalate is commonly used as a plasticizer to impart flexibility to rigid polyvinylchloride (PVC) resins.
Dimethyl and diethyl phthalates are the esters derived from o-phthalic acid and methanol and ethanol respectively.
They are used in veterinary medicines as plasticizers in film coating, at levels of 0.1% or below.
Dimethyl phthalate is also used as an insect repellent in some topical formulations, again at levels of 0.1% or less.
Both esters are used in some topical products as cosolvents at levels of up to 5%, while dimethyl phthalate is used in some oral or bolus products at levels of up to 5%.
Dimethyl phthalate is a phthalate ester.
Phthalate esters are esters of phthalic acid and are mainly used as plasticizers, primarily used to soften polyvinyl chloride.
They are found in a number of products, including glues, building materials, personal care products, detergents and surfactants, packaging, children's toys, paints, pharmaceuticals, food products, and textiles.
Phthalates are hazardous due to their ability to act as endocrine disruptors.
They are being phased out of many products in the United States and European Union due to these health concerns.
Dimethyl phthalate (DMP) is a short-chained ester known as a phthalate acid ester.
Dimethyl phthalate is majorly used as a plasticizer for the production of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and in the coating of cellulose films.
Dimethyl phthalate is a colorless oily liquid with a slightly sweet odour.
Dimethyl phthalate is a phthalate with molecular formula (CH3)2(C6H4(COO)2).
Dimethyl phthalate is the methyl ester of phthalic acid.
Dimethyl phthalate is an ectoparasiticide and has many other uses, including in solid rocket propellants, plastics, and insect repellents.
Phthalates are easily released into the environment because there is no covalent bond between the phthalates and plastics in which they are mixed.
As plastics age and break down, the release of phthalates accelerates.
Because phthalate plasticizers are not chemically bound to PVC, they can easily leach and evaporate into food or the atmosphere.
Phthalate exposure can be through direct use or by indirect means through leaching and general environmental contamination.
Diet is believed to be the main source of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and other phthalates in the general population.
Fatty foods such as milk, butter, and meats are a major source.
Phthalate esters are the dialkyl or alkyl aryl esters of phthalic acid (also called 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid, not be confused with the structurally isomeric terephthalic or isophthalic acids ); the name phthalate derives from phthalic acid, which Dimethyl phthalateself is derived from word "naphthalene".
When added to plastics, phthalates allow the long polyvinyl molecules to slide against one another.
The phthalates have a clear syrupy liquid consistency and show low water solubility, high oil solubility, and low volatility.
The polar carboxyl group contributes little to the physical properties of the phthalates, except when R and R' are very small (such as ethyl or methyl groups).
They are colorless, odorless liquids produced by reacting phthalic anhydride with an appropriate alcohol (usually 6- to 13-carbon).
The mechanism by which phthalates and other molecules afford plasticisation to polar polymers has been a subject of intense study since the 1960's.
The mechanism is one of a polar interactions between the polar centres of the phthalate molecule (the C=O functionality) and the positively charged areas of the vinyl chain, typically residing on the carbon atom of the carbon-chlorine bond.
In order for this to be established, the polymer needs to be heated in the presence of the plasticizer, first above the Tg of the polymer and then into a melt state.
This enables an intimate mix of polymer and plasticizer to be formed, and for these interactions to occur.
When cooled, these interactions remain and the network of PVC chains cannot reform (as is present in unplasticised PVC, or PVC-U).
The alkyl chains of the phthalate then screen the PVC chains from each other as well.
This explains why small changes in the length of these chains produce small changes in the level of plasticisation.

Dimethyl phthalate is considered too volatile and causes excessive fuming during PVC processing.
Dimethyl phthalate is a good plasticizer for cellulose-esters, including cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate butyrate and cellulose propionate compositions.
Historically, this led to Dimethyl phthalate being present in nail polish and some artificial nails but Dimethyl phthalate is not commonly used today.
Dimethyl phthalate is used as a plasticizer for cellulose acetate phthalate, which is used to make enteric coatings for medicines.
Other cosmetic uses include as a fixative for perfumes, although Dimethyl phthalate is not as commonly used as DEP.
Dimethyl phthalate is able to dissolve nitrocellulose which made Dimethyl phthalate historically important in some automotive coatings and vanishes.
Dimethyl phthalate can be used to plasticize cellulose acetate which can be further used in the production of laminated safety glass for flight helmets and goggles.
Dimethyl phthalate can be used as a plasticizer that forms complexes with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and lithium salts for the development of solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) for solar cell (SC) applications.
Dimethyl phthalate may also be used as a mixture of polymeric solvents which can be used in the preparation of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF).
Dimethyl phthalate is colourless, oily liquid used in the manufacture of lacquers, plastics, coating agents, safety glass, moulding powders and insect repellents.
Phthalates are by far the most widely used plasticisers, primarily to make soft and flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) for the applications in the industry of automotive, building & construction material, cable, flooring, medical device and toys.
Phthalates make the long polyvinyl molecules to slide against one another.
Minor quantity of phthalates are used in adhesives, caulk, sealants, paint to improve work performance.
Small molecule phthalates are used as solvents in perfumes to provide longer linger longer and in nail polish to prevent chipping.
They are also used as ingredients of insect repellents, as solvents in lacquer and pesticides, and as dye carrier.
They are used as textile lubricating agents and as solid rocket propellents.
Phthalates are produced by the reaction of phthalic anhydride with appropriate alcohols from methanol up to isodecanol (C13), either as a straight chain or with some branched in the presence of concentrated sulphuric acid as a catalyst.
Excess alcohols are recovered and recycled and phthalates are purified by vacuum distillation and/or Activated Charcoal.
A wide range of phthalates of varying chain length and structure provides each adequate properties and cost-effective for various processing and mechanical requirements.
C8 - C9 phthalates, such as di-2-ethyl hexyl phthalate (DEHP or called DOP), diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP) and diisononyl phthalate (DINP) are the most widely used general purpose phthalates.
DOP is the dominant plasticizer used in PVC, providing low cost.
Short chain phthalates (C3 - C7) are used when rapid setting and stain resistance is required.
2-Ethyl hexanol, produced by the dimerisation of butyraldehyde obtained from propylene, is cheaper than isononyl alcohol which are prepared by the carbonylation of an olefin.

Human Safety of Dimethyl phthalate:
Acute exposure to Dimethyl phthalate via inhalation in humans and animals have shown to result in irritation to the eyes, nose and throat.
Although some research has shown the association between the susceptibility of the reproductive system and phthalates esters, most phthalates demonstrate low acute toxicity.
The chronic (long term) effects, reproductive effects, and carcinogenicity of Dimethyl phthalate on humans and animals have yet to be fully established as compared to some other phthalate esters.
This is due to insufficient animal evidence and inadequate lifetime-exposure carcinogenicity studies available.
However, Dimethyl phthalate does appear to have less potential towards inducing health hazards than other phthalates, such as DEHP and BBP.
