Uses
Component in hydraulic fluids
Uses
Dibutyl Phenyl Phosphate is a phosphorus flame retardant additive.
General Description
Clear colorless liquid.
Air & Water Reactions
Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
Organophosphates, such as dibutyl phenyl phosphate, are susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides.
Health Hazard
Dibutyl phenyl phosphate
(DBPP) has caused skin irritation in humans
after repeated or prolonged contact.
Fire Hazard
dibutyl phenyl phosphate is probably combustible.
Safety Profile
Moderately toxic by
ingestion. Experimental reproductive
effects. When heated to decomposition it
emits toxic fumes of POx.
