Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP) is a colorless, odorless liquid commonly used as a plasticizer, which helps to make plastics more flexible and durable. It is often found in products like vinyl flooring, adhesives, and cosmetics. DBP is part of a group of chemicals known as phthalates, which are used to enhance the performance of various materials. DBP can enter the environment through industrial processes and waste. While it is effective in its applications, concerns have been raised about its potential health effects, particularly regarding endocrine disruption and reproductive toxicity. As a result, some countries have implemented regulations to limit its use.
