 | Hazard Information | Back Directory |  | [General Description] 
 Yellow oily liquid.
 |  | [Reactivity Profile] 
 TRIS(2-ETHYLHEXYL) TRIMELLITATE(3319-31-1) is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids.  Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products.  Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions.  Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides.
 |  | [Air & Water Reactions] 
 Insoluble in water.
 |  | [Fire Hazard] 
 This compound is probably combustible.
 |  | [Chemical Properties] 
 TRIOCTYL TRIMELLITATE is viscous yellow liquid
 |  | [Uses] 
 TRIOCTYL TRIMELLITATE is a plasticizer that was evaluated for endocrine disrupting activities through estrogen receptor alpha binding assay.
 |  | [Definition] 
 ChEBI: Tri-2-ethylhexyl trimellitate is a benzoate ester.
 |  | [Production Methods] 
 TOTM is manufactured by acid-catalyzed esterification of
trimellitic anhydride and 2-ethylhexanol.
 |  | [Flammability and Explosibility] 
 Nonflammable
 |  | [Safety Profile] 
 Very low toxicity by ingestion.When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke andirritating vapors.
