Bis(2-ethylhexyl) adipate or DEHA or DOA is an
liquid.DEHA is sometimes called "dioctyl adipate", incorrectly. Another name is di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate. The abbreviation DOA has been unfortunately used for both Bis(-2-ethylhexyl)-adipate and dioctyl adipate
Use
As well as related
decanol, isodecanol, etc., it is used as a plasticizer.[3]
DEHA is used as a
PVC-based plastic wrap
.
Toxicity
DEHA has very low toxicity. The
LD50 is estimated at 900 mg/kg (rat, i.v.).[3]
