Acetyl Tributyl Citrate, the Most Widely Used Phthalate
We found that four of eight FDA-approved plasticizers increased SXR-mediated transcription. In particular, acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), an industrial plasticizer widely used in products such as food wrap, vinyl toys, and pharmaceutical excipients, strongly activated human and rat SXR.
Plasticizers Derived from Biomass Resources: A Short Review
Acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC) and tributyl citrate (TBC) have been studied in-depth and industrialized due to excellent performances. ATBC has good water and light resistance, good thermal stability without color, and maintains good flexibility at low temperatures.
ATBC technical data sheet 2018 - Traquisa
ATBC is a monomeric plasticizer therefore is recommended to use it with Plasticizer E (Epoxidized Soybean oil) to stabilize light and heat. 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.
Preparation and evaluation of acetylated mixture of citrate
Tributyl citrate (TBC) and acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), as phthalate alternative plasticizers, show limited application due to low migration resistance, high volatilization rate and intense respiratory irritation. Meanwhile, the developed pure citrates, such as butyryl trihexyl citrate (BTHC) due to its high cost, and triisooctyl citrate (TOC) and acetyl triisooctyl citrate (ATOC) due to
Acetyl tributyl citrate, the most widely used phthalate

- 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).
- What is acetyl tributyl citrate PHB plasticizer?
- Citrate plasticizers are derived from naturally occurring citric acid. They are non-toxic and are used as plasticizers with some biodegradable polymers , . In this work we used acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC) as PHB plasticizer.
- Why is ATBC a good plasticizer?
- Because of the growing market request for Phthalate-FREE plasticizers and environmental friendly materials, ATBC is the best and more competitive choice in an increasing variety of applications. ATBC is almost colourless and odourless oily liquid, free of foreign materials, insoluble in water but soluble in alcohols and organic solvents.
- 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.
- What is ATBC resin?
- ATBC is an organic origin mono constituent substance; their solvent power ensures compatibility with all resins improving the dissolution of the blend. ATBC is a plasticizer that has a high boiling point and molecular weight; there is not loss volatility. ATBC is a product with high resistance to light and heat.
- What is ATBC soluble in?
- Description: ATBC is almost colourless and odourless oily liquid. Insoluble in water but soluble in alcohols and organic solvents and is miscible and compatible with monomeric plasticizers. ATBC has low volatility and good compatibility with resins, such as Polyvinylchloride, Polyvinylidene Chloride, Polyvinyl Acetate and Polyacrylate.
