Synthesis of novel plasticizer ester end-capped oligomeric
The structure of EOL was characterized by using FT-IR, 1 H NMR and time of flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS). The plasticizing performance of EOLs in PVC was tested and compared with those of commercial environmental plasticizers acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC) and di-2-ethylhexyl terephthalate (DOTP).

Effect of acetylated citrate plasticizer on mechanical
Based on the above results, the following conclusions can be drawn: (1) Plasticizer citrate does not form chemical bond with PVC, but will destroy the ordered structure of resin, leading to the decline of its thermal stability; (2) Acetylation treatment is beneficial to improve the plasticizing performance of citrate.

Plasticizer ATBC / Acetyl tributyl citrate Cas 77-90-7
Synoflex ATBC is a non-toxic, odorless and safe plasticizer with excellent heat resistance, cold resistance, light resistance and water resistance. It is suitable for food packaging, children’s toys, medical products and other fields. The US F.D.A is approved for meat packaging materials and toy materials.
- What is acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC)?
- ATBC, Acetyl Tributyl Citrate, CAS: 77-90-7, is a plasticizer which can easily substitute those plasticizers to be phased out by the EU by February 2015. Actually, one of the main ATBC application is substitution of Phthalates plasticizers (Acetyl Tributyl Citrate is a Phthalate-FREE, bio based plasticizer).
- Is acetyl tributyl citrate phthalate free?
- Compared with other Phthalate-FREE plasticizers, ATBC is biodegradable, biobased and it is not a kind of hydrogenated phthalate. Acetyl Tributyl Citrate is recognized as a Safe and Biodegradable plasticizer, with fewer biochemical effects.
- What is ATBC used for?
- Actually, one of the main ATBC application is substitution of Phthalates plasticizers (Acetyl Tributyl Citrate is a Phthalate-FREE, bio based plasticizer). ATBC, CAS: 77-90-7, is a safe, non-toxic plasticizer, biodegradable, mainly used as plasticizer of PVC, cellulose resin and synthetic rubber.
- What is ATBC plasticizer?
- ATBC improves the flexibility at low temperatures and ultraviolet rays (UV) resistance of resins. ATBC is a plasticizer that reduces the power of deformation and increases plasticity and elasticity. ATBC avoids the discoloration during the sealing process. ATBC is a plasticizer highly biodegradable, and it is a substitute of DEHP and DINP.
- Is ATBC a phthalate-free plasticizer?
- ATBC is almost colourless and odourless oily liquid, free of foreign materials, insoluble in water but soluble in alcohols and organic solvents. Compared with benzoates plasticizers, ATBC is perfectly odourless. Compared with other Phthalate-FREE plasticizers, ATBC is biodegradable, biobased and it is not a kind of hydrogenated phthalate.
- Why should I use ATBC with plasticizer E (epoxidized soybean oil)?
- Also, it has high resistance to extraction in the spacious range of dissolvent and high resistance migration, due to their low molecular mobility. ATBC is a monomeric plasticizer therefore is recommended to use it with Plasticizer E (Epoxidized Soybean oil) to stabilize light and heat.
