Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP)

DOTP is an oily liquid with high transparency, inconspicuous smell and as the most widely used and also the most economical plasticizer after DOP, with the difference that it is not from the phthalate family, and this is the reason why it is used in the production of a wide range of PVC products as Softener is used.
