DPO can be used alone or as a mixture with other materials. Because of its reactivity, DPO canalso be used as a raw material or chemical intermediate to produce commercial products. DPO isused in the production of:�Heat transfer media � fluids used for heating industrial processes�Alkylated diphenyl oxides �used to make surfactants, greases and lubricants�Halogenated diphenyl oxides �used in insecticides, wood preservatives, and flameretardants for appliance casings in consumer electronic products�High temperature solvents�Coatings�Textile dye labeling�Plastics �like ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) rubber that is used for membraneroofing material
