Product Overview
Acetyl Tributyl Citrate (ATBC), an ester derived from the acetylation of Tributyl Citrate (TBC), is a colorless, odorless oily liquid. As a non-toxic and safe plasticizer, ATBC exhibits excellent heat resistance, cold resistance, light stability, and water resistance. Offered by Integratechem, one of the leading manufacturers and suppliers in China, our ATBC is synthesized in our state-of-the-art factory using high-quality citric acid and butyl alcohol. This versatile compound is suitable for a wide range of applications, including food packaging, children’s toys, medical products, and as a stabilizer for polyvinylidene chloride.
