Tributyl Citrate (TBC) – Mamta Polycoats
Tributyl Citrate (TBC) is an excellent replacement for phthalates and adipates as it has a matching plasticiser performance. It is commonly used in cosmetics, food contact films, and articles of plastic, and it is a fast-fusing plasticiser for technical applications.
Analysis of the most appropriate risk management
The tributyl citrate (TBC, EC No 201-071-2) registrant proposed in its dossier a category approach with TEC, ATEC, ATBC and ATEHC (see FR RMOA on TBC). The read-across is based on the hypothesis that the source substance TBC and the target substance ATBC have similar toxicological properties because they hydrolyse to a
Tributyl citrate as an effective plasticizer
The effectiveness of tributyl citrate (TbC) as a plasticizer for polylactide and polyhydroxybutyrate was analysed in order to improve the ductility of these polymers and make them good candidates for food packaging applications.
ECD Critical Formulation Attributes of Plasticizers
(triethyl citrate) produce a hydrophilic film and faster drug dissolution than water-insoluble plasticizers such as DBS (dibutyl sebacate) that retain the film’s hydrophobicity (Figure 2). At DuPont, we aim to help our . pharma customers with both every day challenges and future solutions. Armed with essential excipients and
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...
- 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.
- How do you store tributyl citrate (TBC)?
- 300 °C (lit.) 1.043 g/mL at 20 °C (lit.) storage temp. 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.
- Is tributyl citrate soluble in water?
- 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℃. It is soluble in most organic solvents.
- 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 tributyl citrate used for?
- This product is innocuous plasticizer, it can be used for granulation of non-toxic PVC, it can be used for packaging materials in food production, soft toys for children, medical products, the plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride, vinyl chloride copolymers, cellulose resin. When absolutely pure, tributyl citrate has virtually no odor.
