Excerpt
Excerpt: The industry under consideration uses chiefly the phthalate plasticizers: predominantly dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and higher alkyl phthalates (DAP-789); periodically dioctyl phthalate (DOP), diisooctyl phthalate (DIOP), and benzyl hutyl phthalate (BBP). Some formulations contain small amounts of one of the sebacates (dibutyl sebacate, DBS, or dioctyl sebacate, DOS) or adipates (dibutyl adipate, DBA, or dioctyl adipate, DOA). Tricresyl phosphate (TCP) was a component of the incombustible materials produced in 10-20% of machines assigned to various workers. The literature data on the toxicity of phthalates are sparse and contradictory (1 -9).
