Toxic Effects of Di-2-ethylhexyl Phthalate: An Overview [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2018 Di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) is extensively used as a plasticizer in many products, especially medical devices, furniture materials, cosmetics, and personal care products. DEHP is noncovalently bound to plastics, and therefore, it will leach out of these products after repeated use, heating, and/or cleaning of the products.
