PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Bis(2-butoxyethyl)phthalate is a phthalate ester obtained by the formal condensation of both the carboxy groups of phthalic acid with two molecules of 2-butoxyethanol. It has a role as a xenobiotic. It is a diester and a phthalate ester. It is functionally related to a 2-butoxyethanol.
