Products classified under HTS 2917.39.20.00
Dioctyl Terephthalate (DOTP)
Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) is an aromatic polycarboxylic acid ester derived from terephthalic acid, used primarily as a non-phthalate plasticizer for PVC applications. It falls under HTS 2917.39.20.00 as a plasticizer within aromatic polycarboxylic acid derivatives. This clear, odorless liquid enhances flexibility in flooring, cables, and medical devices.
Diisononyl Terephthalate (DINTP)
Diisononyl terephthalate (DINTP) is a branched-chain ester of terephthalic acid used as a high-performance plasticizer for flexible PVC in automotive and wire insulation. Classified under HTS 2917.39.20.00 as an aromatic polycarboxylic plasticizer. It offers better cold flexibility than traditional phthalates.
Terephthalic Acid Di-2-ethylhexyl Ester
This terephthalic acid ester with 2-ethylhexanol serves as a phthalate-free plasticizer for soft PVC films and sheeting. HTS 2917.39.20.00 covers it as an aromatic polycarboxylic plasticizer derivative. Known for low volatility and excellent gelling properties.
Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG) Plasticizer Blend
Specialty plasticizer containing terephthalate oligomers for PETG resin processing, improving melt flow and clarity. Falls under HTS 2917.39.20.00 as aromatic polycarboxylic plasticizer. Used in blow-molded bottles and medical packaging.
Isodecyl Terephthalate Plasticizer
Isodecyl terephthalate provides low-temperature flexibility in PVC plastisols for outdoor applications. Classified HTS 2917.39.20.00 as aromatic polycarboxylic plasticizer. Features high flash point and migration resistance.
Terephthalate-Based Epoxy Plasticizer
Epoxidized terephthalate ester combines plasticizing with secondary stabilization for PVC compounds. HTS 2917.39.20.00 as aromatic polycarboxylic plasticizer. Used in wire insulation requiring heat aging resistance.
