It can also be used as a heat stabilizer for emulsion polyvinyl chloride. It is especially suitable for soft products. The general dosage is 0.2-0.5%. It will not color plastic products, but it cannot prevent the products from being discolored by light. It cannot be used together with lead and cadmium stabilizers, otherwise it will cause discoloration of the product.
DPTUis also an intermediate for medicines and dyes, and is used in the production of indigo, methyl indigo, sulfur dyes, flotation agents, anti-acid agents, etc.
