Frequently Asked Questions

What is diethyl phthalate (DEP) used for?

DEP is a plasticizer — it is used in PVC compounding and plastic processing to soften rigid polymer and add flexibility, alongside plasticizers such as DOP and DBP. Its odourless character and low colour (30 max APHA) suit formulations where appearance and smell matter.

What is the CAS number and HSN code of diethyl phthalate?

Di Ethyl Phthalate carries CAS number 84-66-2 and HSN code 2917 32 00. It is the diethyl ester of phthalic acid.

What is the DEP chemical full form, and how else is it written?

DEP stands for Diethyl Phthalate. The same product is written Di Ethyl Phthalate, Di-Ethyl Phthalate or Diethyl phthalate — all refer to CAS 84-66-2.

What grade and specification of diethyl phthalate do you supply?

We supply Industrial Grade DEP at Min 99.0% purity — 99.00% min ester content and 99.00% min purity by Gas Chromatography, with 0.30% max moisture and 0.01% max acidity as phthalic acid. Typical physical values are specific gravity 1.115 – 1.118 at 25 °C, viscosity 8 – 12 cps at 25 °C and refractive index 1.500 – 1.505 at 25 °C, traceable to the manufacturer's Certificate of Analysis. Full figures are on our TDS (SPC-TDS-PLA-005), available as a download.

Is diethyl phthalate flammable, and how should it be handled?

DEP is classified as a combustible liquid. Avoid skin and eye contact and inhalation of vapour or mist, and use it with adequate ventilation and personal protective equipment — full details are in the downloadable SPC MSDS for this product.
