Dimethyl Phthalate (DMP) Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- DMP
- Phthalic Acid Dimethyl Ester
- Dimethyl Benzene-1,2-Dicarboxylate
Dimethyl phthalate supplier for plastic, resin, coating, ink and formulation buyers in Malaysia. Also known as DMP or phthalic acid dimethyl ester, it is a clear oily phthalate ester with CAS 131-11-3 and formula C10H10O4.
Industrial plasticiser grade covers selected polymer and resin systems. Technical formulation grade is used where a coating, ink, adhesive or sealant sets colour and moisture controls, while higher-purity material is requested for tighter synthesis or formulation requirements.
Dimethyl phthalate can function as a plasticiser, process aid, solvent or carrier in suitable industrial systems and selected personal-care or fragrance formulations. It is distinct from diethyl phthalate, dibutyl phthalate and other phthalate esters, so the molecule and grade should be named clearly.

Dimethyl Phthalate grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Industrial plasticiser grade dimethyl phthalate | clear oily liquid | — | Plasticiser and process aid in selected polymer, resin, coating and ink formulations where dimethyl phthalate is specified. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Technical formulation grade dimethyl phthalate | clear oily liquid | — | Solvent, carrier or formulation component in coatings, adhesives, sealants and other industrial systems with defined colour and moisture controls. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Higher-purity grade dimethyl phthalate | clear, low-colour oily liquid | — | Controlled synthesis and formulation work where tighter impurity, colour or water limits are required than for a general industrial grade. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Common questions about dimethyl phthalate
Are dimethyl phthalate and DMP the same product?
Yes. DMP is the common abbreviation for dimethyl phthalate, also known as phthalic acid dimethyl ester and dimethyl benzene-1,2-dicarboxylate, CAS 131-11-3. It should be requested separately from other phthalate esters.
Is dimethyl phthalate the same as diethyl or dibutyl phthalate?
No. Dimethyl, diethyl and dibutyl phthalate are different ester molecules with different formulae and formulation behaviour. Use the full name or CAS number when a purchase specification calls for DMP rather than DEP or DBP.
Which dimethyl phthalate grade should I request?
Industrial plasticiser grade suits general polymer and resin work. Technical formulation grade is selected when a coating, ink, adhesive or sealant has defined colour and moisture controls, while higher-purity material is used for tighter synthesis or formulation specifications.
What specifications matter for a dimethyl phthalate enquiry?
State the intended use and any limits for purity, colour, acid value, water and residual impurities. Providing the current internal specification makes it easier to match the quoted grade to the formulation.
What is dimethyl phthalate used for in coatings and plastics?
It can act as a plasticiser, process aid, solvent or carrier in selected polymer, resin, coating, ink, adhesive and sealant systems. The formulation must specify DMP itself because other phthalates are not interchangeable by name alone.
How do I request a dimethyl phthalate price in Malaysia?
Send the grade, application, target specification, quantity and delivery location. Add preferred packing and documentation requirements so the quotation can address the complete requirement and state its validity period.
