Application

Sodium 2-ethylhexyl sulfate is an anionic surfactant that can be used:
  • In suspension polymerization.
  • In the analysis of phenolic compounds through microchip-CE with pulsed amperometric detection.
  • As charge balancing anions in the synthesis of organo-layered double hydroxides (organo-LDHs).

Chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity studies of several phthalic acid esters (PAEs) and compounds containing a 2-ethylhexyl moiety were conducted in Fischer 344 rats and B6C3F1 (hybrid) mice. The compounds studied were phthalic anhydride, di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, butyl benzyl phthalate, diallyl phthalate
