Plasticizing effects of citrate esters on properties of poly
Triethyl citrate (TEC) and acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC) were used as plasticizer for poly (lactic acid) (PLA). The treated and plasticized PLA at various concentrations were analyzed by...
Tributyl citrate as an effective plasticizer for biodegradable
The effectiveness of tributyl citrate (TbC) as plasticizer for polylactide (PLLA) and poly (hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) was analyzed in order to improve the ductility of these polymers and make them...
Preparation and evaluation of acetylated mixture of citrate ester

Plasticizer - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Specialist plasticisers include phosphates for fire retardancy, polymeric plasticisers (low migration) and some newer ‘non-phthalate’ plasticisers such as citrates, benzoate esters, alkyl sulphonic phenyl esters (Mesamoll), di-isononyl cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylate (Hexamoll DINCH) and biobased plasticisers (e.g. Grindsted Soft-n-Safe).
- What is a citrate plasticizer?
- Citrate plasticizers are made of citrates which are esters of citric acid. They can be found in oily liquid form and they are practically colourless and odourless. They are used in paints, coatings and inks but also in food packaging products, cling wrap, toys and medical applications.
- Why is tributyl citrate a new non-toxic plasticizer?
- Tributyl citrate (TBC) is a new non-toxic plasticizer, because it has good compatibility, high plasticizing efficiency, non-toxic and less volatile, weather resistance and other characteristics of broad interest, it is used as the preferred alternative green products in place of phthalic dimethyl esters.
- Which materials can be plasticized with citrates?
- Some properties of materials plasticized with citrates can match those plasticized with DOP but the cost of their production is substantially higher. Tri Butyl Citrate is a high boiling substance, is used as a solvent and plasticizer for polymers especially for PVC and its copolymers which are subsequently applied to food wrapping film.
- Which plasticizer is most commonly used in China?
- The most commonly used plasticizer is phthalate esters industrially, because it can induce cancer, the use in foreign countries has been controlled strictly , China has also formulated relevant laws and regulations, and will phase out its use in food packaging materials, medical appliances toys .
- Are plasticizers suitable for pharmaceutical applications?
- The extensive use of polymers in medical and pharmaceutical applications including particularly packaging, medical devices, drug carriers and coatings has caused a substantial demand for the proper plasticizers. Although there are many plasticizers used in the chemical industry, only a few of them have been approved for pharmaceutical applications.
- How to store tributyl citrate?
- Store below +30°C. Miscible with acetone, ethanol, and vegetable oil; practically insoluble in water. Tributyl citrate (TBC) is a good environmental plasticizers, lubricants. At room temperature, it is non-toxic, it has fruit flavor, it is colorless oily liquid. Boiling point is 170℃ (133.3Pa), flash point (open cup) is 185℃.
