- Nonylphenol is an
organic compound of the wider family of alkylphenols. It is a product of
industrial synthesis formed during the alkylation process of phenols,
particularly in the synthesis of polyethoxylate detergents.
- Nonylphenol is commonly
obtained as a mixture of isomers, and is thus usually found as a pale
yellow liquid at room temperature with a freezing point of -10°C and a
boiling point of 295-320°C.
- Of alkylphenolic
compounds, nonylphenol (NP) and nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEOs) are the
most interested endocrine disruptor compounds since they were frequently
detected in the streams and in the effluent of sewage treatment
plants.
- Nonyl phenol and the
related nonyl phenol ethoxylates are used in pesticide products as inert
ingredients and as adjuvants added by the pesticide user.
- Nonylphenol is used as
a catalyst in the curing of epoxy resin.
- Nonylphenol is mainly
used as binders for ink and an intermediate material for production of
nonyl phenolethoxylate, which is one of the surfactants used in cleaning
agents.
- It is also used as
intermediate of anti-oxidants for rubber.
- World demand for
nonylphenol is 18,200-20,500 tonnes per annum. It is very much governed
by demand for nonyl phenolethoxylate, which in
Europe at all events
can be expected to diminish.
- Nonylphenol, and a
related compound tert-octylphenol, were first detected as an air
pollutant in New York City and New Jersey, probably due to its
evaporation from the Hudson river and other smaller rivers in the region
that routinely receive municipal wastewaters.
- The production volume
of nonyl phenol in past years was 16,110 tons, of which 6,279 tons was
exported, while 1,861 tons was imported. Production has been tending to
decrease year by year.
- Approximately 40% is
used in the production of anti-oxidants for rubber, phenol resins used
in laminated sheets, the binder for inks, and stabilizers for epoxy
resins. NP was formerly used as an additive for plastics, but is not
being used for plastics produced in Japan at present.
