Used primarily as a plasticizer in polymers to enhance flexibility and workability, especially in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other plastic materials. It improves the durability and elasticity of coatings, adhesives, and sealants. Commonly found in industrial applications such as wire and cable insulation, flooring, and films where moderate flexibility and good low-temperature performance are required. Also employed in specialty formulations where lower volatility and better migration resistance are needed compared to common phthalates.
