TOTM (Tris (2-Ethylhexyl) Trimellitate) Plasticizer | Eastman
Eastman TOTM Plasticizer (Tris (2-Ethylhexyl) Trimellitate) is the ideal PVC plasticizer for use in applications where low volatility is of supreme importance. These applications include wire and cable insulation (TOTM-CA) and interior automotive. Eastman TOTM plasticizer has unique low migration properties and extraction resistance
Pala tino l TOT M-I
Palatinol TOTM-I is a primary, branched monomeric plasticizer for vinyl homopolymer and copolymer resins. Palatinol TOTM-I is suggested for use in those end -use areas where extreme low volatility is required. Chemical Nature Trioctyl trimellitate Product Number 509809314 BASF Registered Name Palatinol TOTM-I CAS No. 3319-31-1

Analysis of medical devices (MDs) The results of the GC-MS analyses of MDs in PVC are presented in Table 1.Trioctyl trimellitate (TOTM) was the predominantly detected plasticizer in multi-access infusion sets (35% or g of TOTM/100 g of PVC), extension tubes (30% or g of TOTM/100 g of PVC) and epidural infusion sets (35% or g of TOTM/100 g of PVC).
Sensitive monitoring of the main metabolites of tri-(2
Tri-(2-ethylhexyl) trimellitate (TOTM or TEHTM) is a substitute for the plasticizer di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP). Here, a fast and sensitive UHPLC-MS/MS method is presented enabling the simultaneous quantification of the six main TOTM metabolites in urine. These include the primary metabolites
CPSC Staff Statement on University of Cincinnati Report
When trimellitate esters, such as TOTM, are processed with PVC, their principle feature is low volatility, even under high temperatures. Consequently, TOTM’s main use is in high specification electrical cable insulation and sheathing (ECPI, 2009, as cited by Versar, 2010). Additionally, as a branched molecule, TOTM is more viscous than the
- What is trioctyl trimellitate?
- The compound is obtained from trimellitic anhydride and 2-ethylhexanol in an acid catalyzed esterification process. Due to its high temperature resistance, low volatility and harmlessness to health, trioctyl trimellitate is suitable as a plasticizer for special applications and mainly replaces phthalates there.
- Is trioctyl trimellitate combustible?
- Trioctyl trimellitate (TOTM) is a plasticizer with high stability. The connection is basically combustible, but difficult to ignite and not explosive. When trioctyl trimellitate is burned and thermally decomposed, acrid fumes and noxious gases such as carbon monoxide are released.
- How can I order a trioctyl trimellitate (TOTM)?
- At PENPET you can order the required amount of trioctyl trimellitate (TOTM) in an uncomplicated and sustainable way. We look forward to receiving your inquiry for an individual offer.
- Is trioctyltrimellitate hazardous to water?
- Trioctyl trimellitate is considered to be slightly hazardous to water and should not be released into soil, water bodies or waste water. Trioctyltrimellitate (TOTM) offers high resistance to heat, making it a versatile plasticizer for durable and heat-resistant plastics in a wide range of applications.
- How does trioctyl trimellitate react with oxidizing agents?
- Trioctyl trimellitate (TOTM) reacts with strong oxidizing agents and acids. This can lead to reactions with intense heat development, so that the reaction products ignite. Explosive hydrogen, among other things, can form in contact with alkali metals and alkali hydrides.
- What happens when trioctyl trimellitate is burned?
- When trioctyl trimellitate is burned and thermally decomposed, acrid fumes and noxious gases such as carbon monoxide are released. Trioctyl trimellitate (TOTM) reacts with strong oxidizing agents and acids. This can lead to reactions with intense heat development, so that the reaction products ignite.
