Most of the 4-(1,1,3,3-tetrametylbutyl)-phenol appears to be used as an intermediate for the production of resins, non-ionic surfactants and rubber additives. OP is also used for the manufacturing of antioxidants, fuel oil stabilizers, adhesives, dyestuffs, fungicides, bactericides, and for vulcanizing synthetic rubber (a sulphide complex of OP). Ref. At least 95-98 % of the octylphenol used in the United States is chemically altered before reaching the consumer market. Ref. [40] The remaining 2-5 % are supposed to be used in fuel for aeroplanes. In 1993 less than 10 t octylphenolethoxylates were used in Switzerland. Ref.
