Diethyl phosphate (DEP) is a chemical that can be used in many different industries. Its main application is as a reagent in organic synthesis, especially in reduction processes and the manufacture of α-aminophosphonates. DEP also acts as a plasticizer and antioxidant in polymers, increasing their flexibility and durability and as a flame retardant, strengthening material’s resistance to fire. It also contributes to the synthesis of agrochemicals, such as herbicides and pesticides, and is a solvent in paints and coatings. Its significance in a variety of chemical processes is further highlighted by the fact that it serves as a chemical intermediary in the synthesis of other compounds containing phosphorus.

The market for Diethyl Phosphate is driven by its use as a reagent in organic synthesis, especially in synthesizing α-amino phosphonates and various phosphorus-containing compounds, which in turn has a great demand in pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Furthermore, its application in the production of flame retardants that are valuable due to the rising concern with fire safety in building materials, clothes as well as consumer goods is highly effective. In addition, it is used in plastic materials as a plasticizer and antioxidant, which improves the properties and performance of plastics.

Thus, it is used in plastics, automotive, and packaging industries. Also, the use of the product in production processes, such as in pesticides and herbicides, increases its market in the agrochemical sector. Overall, industrial Diethyl Phosphate procurement is influenced by its application in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, its utilization in formulating flame retardants, its ability to be utilized as a plasticizer and antioxidant in plastics, automotive, and packaging industries, and its employment in the agrochemical industry.

Raw Material for Diethyl Phosphate Production

According to the Diethyl Phosphate manufacturing plant project report, the key raw material used in the production of Diethyl Phosphate includes diethyl chlorophosphite.

Manufacturing Process of Diethyl Phosphate

The extensive Diethyl Phosphate production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

1. Production from diethyl chlorophosphite: The manufacturing process of Diethyl Phosphate involves the reaction of diethyl chlorophosphite with benzaldoxime to form diethyl benzaldimino phosphate as an intermediate. The intermediate, finally, on decomposition, gives Diethyl Phosphate.

Diethyl Phosphate is a clear colorless to light yellow-orange liquid having the molecular formula C4H10O4P- and a molecular weight of 153.09 g/mol. It has a density of 1.2 g/cm³. It has a boiling point of 200.3°C at 760 mmHg and a melting point of 6°C. It has a flash point value of around 74.9°C. It has a vapor pressure of 0.1 mmHg at 25°C and a refractive index value of 1.418. Diethyl Phosphate is stable in its presence, but when it reacts with water, it undergoes what is referred to as hydrolysis. Due to its solubility in both organic solvents and water, it can be used in a wide variety of different processes.
