What is Bis(2-ethylhexyl)isophthalate?
Chemical properties
Di(2-ethylhexyl) isophthalate has a water solubility of less than 0.1 g/100mL at 16℃. It is a colorless liquid.
General Description
Clear light yellow viscous liquid.
Air & Water Reactions
Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
BIS(2-ETHYLHEXYL)ISOPHTHALATE is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides.
Health Hazard
ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: When heated to decomposition BIS(2-ETHYLHEXYL)ISOPHTHALATE emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
Fire Hazard
BIS(2-ETHYLHEXYL)ISOPHTHALATE is probably combustible.
