Plasticizer DOTP in PVC artificial leather Production

Plasticizer DOTP (dioctyl terephthalate) has emerged as a cornerstone for manufacturing high-performance PVC synthetic leather. Renowned for its exceptional plasticizing efficiency and thermal stability, DOTP plays a pivotal role in transforming rigid PVC into soft, flexible, and durable materials used across industries—from fashion to automotive interiors.

Plasticizer DOTP’s chemical structure—composed of a phthalic acid backbone and two octyl groups—grants it superior plasticizing capabilities. When incorporated into PVC formulations, it enhances flexibility, reduces brittleness, and improves thermal resistance, making it ideal for applications requiring prolonged durability 

. Key advantages include:

• Heat Stability: DOTP maintains integrity even at elevated temperatures, crucial for products like automotive upholstery exposed to fluctuating climates  
• Cost-Effectiveness: As a direct replacement for older plasticizers like DOP (dioctyl phthalate), DOTP offers comparable performance at competitive prices, driven by efficient production processes 

Though both plasticizer DOTP and plasticizer DINP belong to the phthalate family, their distinct properties cater to different needs:

Parameter	DOTP	DINP
Chemical Structure	Dioctyl terephthalate	Diisononyl phthalate
Flexibility	High (ideal for thin films)	Moderate (better for thick layers)
Thermal Stability	Up to 80°C	Up to 100°C

.Plasticizer DOTP continues to revolutionize synthetic leather manufacturing by balancing performance, cost, and compliance. While alternatives like DINP offer niche advantages, DOTP’s versatility and adaptability position it as a preferred choice
