Benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP) is primarily used as a plasticizer, a substance added to plastics to increase their flexibility, processability, and durability. 

Plastics: BBP is used to produce flexible PVC (polyvinyl chloride) products such as flooring, wall coverings and synthetic leather.

Coating: Used in various coatings and sealants to enhance their flexibility and adhesion properties.

Binder: BBP can be added to some adhesive formulations to improve their performance.

Textiles: It can be used in textile treatments to provide flexibility and durability.

Cosmetics: In some cases, BBP is used in cosmetic formulations, but its use in cosmetics is subject to regulatory scrutiny in various regions due to health concerns.

Other Applications: BBP can also be used in other products such as inks, lubricants and certain types of rubber.

Container: Store BBP in airtight containers made of compatible materials, such as glass or certain phthalate-resistant plastics.

Temperature: Keep the storage area cool and well ventilated. It is best to store BBP at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

Humidity: Maintain a dry environment to prevent moisture from affecting chemicals.

Separation: Store BBP away from incompatible substances (such as strong oxidants, acids and bases) to avoid any potential reactions.

Label: Clearly label containers with the chemical name, hazard information, and any relevant safety precautions.

Safety Precautions: Ensure storage areas are secure and take appropriate safety measures, including personal protective equipment (PPE) for anyone handling the substance.

Regulatory Compliance: Follow any local regulations or guidelines regarding the storage of hazardous materials.

1. Toxicity: Benzyl butyl phthalate has been linked to various health effects, including reproductive and developmental toxicity. Studies have shown that exposure to BBP may affect hormone levels and reproductive health.

2. Regulatory status: Due to these concerns, many countries have regulated BBP. For example, the EU has restricted its use in certain applications, especially in children’s products and toys.

3. Routes of Exposure: Humans may be exposed to Benzyl butyl phthalate through skin contact, inhalation or ingestion, particularly in environments where products containing BBP are used or manufactured.

4. Preventive measures: It is recommended to minimize exposure to Benzyl butyl phthalate, especially for vulnerable groups such as pregnant women and children.
