CCRIS 237 - Introduction
This standard substance is mainly used for measuring instrument calibration, analytical method evaluation and quality control, as well as the content determination and residue detection of corresponding components in related fields such as food, hygiene, environment and agriculture. It can also be used for value traceability or as a standard liquid reserve solution. It is diluted step by step and configured into various standard solutions for work. 1. Sample Preparation This standard substance is made of pure dioctyl phthalate with accurate purity and fixed value as raw material, chromatographic methanol as solvent, and accurately configured by weight-volume method. Dioctyl phthalate, English name: Dioctyl phthalate in acetone,CAS number: 117-81-7 2. traceability and fixed value method This standard substance takes the configuration value as the standard value, and uses high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC -DAD) to compare this batch of standard substances and quality control control samples, and verify the preparation value. By using preparation methods, measurement methods and measuring instruments that meet the requirements of metrological characteristics, the traceability of the value of the standard substance is guaranteed. 3. characteristic value and uncertainty (see certificate for details) Number Name Standard Value (ug/mL) Relative Expansion Uncertainty (%)(k = 2)BW10386 The uncertainty of the 5002 standard value of dioctyl phthalate in methanol is mainly synthesized by uncertainty components such as raw material purity, weighing, constant volume, uniformity and stability. 4. uniformity test and stability inspection According to the JJF1343-2012 [General Principles and Statistical Principles of Standard Substance Setting], random sampling of sub-packed samples is carried out, uniformity test of solution concentration is carried out, and stability inspection is carried out. The results show that the standard material has good uniformity and stability. The standard substance is valid for 18 months from the date of setting the value. The development unit will continue to monitor the stability of the standard substance. If the value changes are found during the validity period, the user will be notified in time. 5. packaging, transportation and storage, use and precautions 1. Packaging: This standard substance is packed in borosilicate glass ampoules, about 1.2 mL/branch. When removing or diluting, the pipette quantity shall prevail. 2. Transportation and storage: normal temperature transportation, transportation should avoid extrusion and collision; Storage under refrigerated (2-8)℃ and protected from light. 3. Use: Balance at room temperature (20±3 ℃) before unsealing, and shake well. Once the ampoule is opened, it should be used immediately and cannot be used as a standard substance after being fused again.

Open Data Verified Data
- This product is low toxicity, animal oral LD50> 30000mg/kg. France, Britain, Japan, Germany and other countries allow this product for contact with food (except fatty food) plastic products, the United States allows this product for food packaging with cellophane, paint, adhesive, rubber products. There was a debate about whether DOP can cause cancer in the Eighties of the 20th century. Although there is no clear evidence to prove it, all countries are looking for a substitute for DOP.
- the use of iron drum packaging, specifications 200kg/barrel. Storage should be cool and ventilated, to prevent water leakage into the barrel, transport in accordance with the provisions of the general provisions of dangerous goods.

| Use | Used as the main plasticizer of plastics, widely used in polyvinyl chloride products It can be used as a substitute for DOP, especially suitable for plasticized paste, Good viscosity stability Used as gas chromatography fixative, plasticizer Used as cold-resistant plasticizer This product is the most widely used plasticizer, in addition to cellulose acetate and polyethylene acetate, it has good compatibility with synthetic resins and rubbers used in most industries. This product has good comprehensive performance, good mixing performance, high plasticizing efficiency, low volatility, good low temperature flexibility, water extraction resistance, high electrical performance, good heat resistance and weather resistance. As a main plasticizer, this product is widely used in the processing of various soft PVC products, such as films, sheets, artificial leather, cable materials and molded products. The product is non-toxic and can be used for packaging materials in contact with food, but it is not suitable for fatty food packaging materials because it is easy to be extracted from fat. It can also be used for nitrocellulose paint to make the paint film have elastic high tensile strength. In a variety of synthetic rubbers, this product also has a good softening effect. In addition, DOP is also used as a condensing agent, antiwear agent, organic solvent, and gas chromatography fixative. gas chromatography stationary solution (the highest service temperature is 150 ℃, the solvent is methanol main and dichloromethane) selectively retains and separates aromatic compounds, unsaturated compounds, various oxides (alcohols, aldehydes, ketones and esters, etc.) and plasticizers. |
| production method | the amount of plasticizer is large and there are many varieties. At present, the development trend of plasticizer production technology is, on the one hand, the continuous large-scale production of the main plasticizer, on the other hand, the multi-variety, small-batch intermittent production of special plasticizers. The consumption of phthalate plasticizers accounts for about 80% of the total amount of plasticizers, and the production volume is very large, so there is a continuous large-scale production centered on dioctyl phthalate. Phthalic acid esters are industrially prepared by esterification of phthalic anhydride and corresponding alcohols in the presence of acidic catalysts such as sulfuric acid and p-toluenesulfonic acid. The amount of acidic catalyst is generally 0.2-0.5% based on phthalic anhydride. The esterification reaction is carried out by phthalic anhydride and 2-ethylhexanol (isooctanol) under the catalysis of sulfuric acid or titanate, stannous oxide, aluminate and other non-acidic catalysts. The esterification liquid is neutralized, washed with water, and The finished product is obtained by alcohol removal, decolorization and pressure filtration. Raw material consumption quota: phthalic anhydride 383kg/t, 2-ethylhexanol (95%)671kg/t, sulfuric acid 6kg/t, soda ash 10kg/t. |
