Monobenzyl phthalate is a plasticizer and is used to increase the flexibility and durability of various polymer materials. It acts by interacting with the polymer chains, reducing intermolecular forces and allowing the chains to slide past each other more easily. This results in improved flexibility and resistance to breakage in the final polymer product. At the molecular level, monobenzyl phthalate disrupts the packing of polymer chains, leading to a more amorphous structure and enhancing the mechanical properties of the material. Its mechanism of action involves binding to the polymer matrix and altering its physical properties, making it a useful additive in the development of various plastic and rubber products.
