2-Ethylhexanol Solvent

When the purity of the 2-ethylhexanol plasticizer raw material is insufficient, the amount of unreacted alcohol and byproducts in the esterification reaction will significantly increase. In actual production, for every 0.5 percentage point decrease in purity, an additional 15-20 kg of octanol is typically required per ton of DOP. High moisture and impurities can lead to excessive acid value in the crude product, necessitating an additional alkaline washing or activated carbon decolorization process. This adds 2-3 hours of processing time and material costs per batch. Improper handling can result in the entire batch being downgraded, leading to direct losses of thousands to tens of thousands of yuan.

We supply industrial-grade 2-ethylhexanol 99% with a main content ≥99.5%, moisture ≤0.10%, and color ≤10 (Pt-Co). Along‍‌‍‍‌ with every batch of product you'll receive a certificate of analysis (COA) stating the most vital properties of the ingredients. That COA includes the percentage of the content, moisture, color, as well as the acidity. All test reports are from a China National Accreditation Service (CNAS) accredited ‍‌‍‍‌laboratory. Products will pass through the stage of inspection at the time of arrival and acceptance will be decided by comparing the outcomes of such checking with those of the COA without having first made temporary alterations to the setting values of the process equipment as the specifications of the incoming materials differ a bit from those of the previous batches.

We‍‌‍‍‌ can produce around 20,000 tons a year, plus we have 100 tons on ‍‌‍‍‌hand.

Upstream Laboratories and Technical Support

Leveraging our upstream cooperative production bases and CNAS-accredited laboratories, we have established a comprehensive octanol quality testing system. Our‍‌‍‍‌ research facilities have more than thirty state-of-the-art analytical devices. Among them is nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), SEM or scanning electron microscopy, and SmartLab X-ray diffractometers. These instruments allow precise analysis of octanol to determine the purity of the compound, moisture content, color, acid value and presence of various impurities. Ultimately, the product quality will satisfy the specifications of raw material requirements of the plasticizer and fine chemical ‍‌‍‍‌industries. We also possess over 300 sets of catalyst evaluation and distillation experimental equipment, enabling continuous optimization of product quality stability and providing stable and reliable raw material support for PVC plasticizer, resin, coating, and chemical manufacturing companies.

Transportation Methods

2 ethyl hexanol density is classified as a Class 3 flammable liquid, requiring strict adherence to hazardous chemical transport regulations during transportation. We have established long-term partnerships with logistics companies possessing hazardous chemical transport qualifications, offering various transportation options such as iron drums, IBC containers, ISO tank containers, and tank trucks, depending on the customer's purchase quantity, to meet domestic distribution and international export needs. We‍‌‍‍‌ are able to prepare all the required export documents, such as COA, MSDS, dangerous goods packaging certificate (as applicable), customs declaration, certificate of origin, and SGS test report, meeting the requirements of the destination country, which greatly assists clients to smoothly accomplish international transportation and customs Clearance ‍‌‍‍‌procedures.
