Tris(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate (TEHP [2]) is an organic chemical compound in the organophosphate group. It is a triakylphosphate.
Since tris(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate is easily separated from polymers, it is often found in house dust [3]
Tris(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate is a colourless, viscous liquid with a faint, piercing smell. It has a viscosity of 15 mPas at 20 °C. [4]
Due to its properties (including that it is a mild biocide), tris(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate is used in a variety of applications:
When heated above its flash point of 170 °C, TEHP can release vapours capable of forming explosive mixtures with air. [6]
Several studies concluded that TEHP has the highest bioaccumulation factor of all organophosphate flame retardants examined. [7]
