Poster Print : Diisononyl phthalate
Poster Prints from Science Photo Library
Diisononyl phthalate
Diisononyl phthalate (DINP). Computer artwork of a molecule of DINP. It has the chemical formula C26.H42.O4. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour-coded: carbon (grey), hydrogen (blue) and oxygen (red). Phthalates are a group of compounds widely used as plasticisers, substances that soften plastics. Phthalates do not chemically bind to the plastic and so readily leach out of it. This, with evidence that they may be carcinogenic, disrupt hormones and cause organ damage, led the European Union in June 2005 to ban the use of DINP and other phthalates in toys and childcare articles that children could put in their mouths where their concentration exceeds 0.1% of the mass of the material

EDITORS COMMENTS
This computer artwork showcases a molecule of Diisononyl phthalate (DINP), represented by spheres in varying colors. With its chemical formula C26. H42. O4, DINP belongs to the group of compounds known as phthalates, widely used as plasticisers to soften plastics. However, the alarming fact is that these phthalates do not chemically bind to the plastic and easily leach out into their surroundings. The European Union took decisive action in June 2005 due to mounting evidence suggesting that DINP and other phthalates may be carcinogenic, disrupt hormones, and cause organ damage. Consequently, they banned the use of DINP and similar compounds in toys and childcare articles where their concentration exceeds 0.1% of the material's mass. This thought-provoking image serves as a stark reminder of the dangerous nature of such chemicals. It highlights the importance of understanding their impact on our environment and health. The illustration symbolizes both illegal practices associated with hazardous substances like DINP and ongoing efforts towards pollution control. As we delve into this molecular world through computer-generated artistry, it becomes evident how crucial it is to regulate toxic compounds like DINP effectively. By raising awareness about this banned allergen and potential carcinogen, we can strive for safer alternatives while protecting future generations from harm caused by pollutants present in everyday objects.
