Important substitute for phthalates

Due to the increased regulation of phthalates, Hexamoll DINCH has been used as a plasticizer since 2002, mainly as a DEHP (di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate) substitute in toys and medical equipment. Due to its similar structure (the aromatic ring of the phthalates is replaced by a cyclohexane ring) it possesses similar physical properties but shows far lower toxicity. The high demand for phthalate species leads to a strong increase in the use and production of DINCH.
