Acetyl Tributyl Citrate(ATBC) is an ester formed by the acetylation of Tributyl Citrate (TBC), a colorless, odorless oily liquid. In short, ATBC is a non-toxic, odorless and safe plasticizer with excellent heat resistance, cold resistance, light resistance and water resistance. Offered here at Integratechem, one of the leading and professional China manufacturers and suppliers. In addition, acetyl tributyl citrate factory produces it use citric acid and butyl alcohol. Furthermore, ATBC is suitable for food packaging, children’s toys, medical products and other fields. Besides, it can also be used as a stabilizer for polyvinylidene chloride.

4. Application & Advantages
In short, Acetyl Tributyl Citrate(ATBC) is a non-toxic plasticizer. Firstly, people mainly use it as a plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride, cellulose resin and synthetic rubber. Secondly, people use ATBC for non-toxic PVC granulation, food packaging containers, children’s toy products, medical products, films, sheets, cellulose coatings and other products. Furthermore, we can also use ATBC as a stabilizer for polyvinylidene chloride. In addition, manufacturers produce ATBC by acetylation of tributyl citrate (TBC).
5. Packaging / Storage / Transport of Acetyl Tributyl Citrate(ATBC)
Firstly, packed in 200L iron drum, net weight 200kg / drum. Secondly, store in a dry, cool and ventilated place indoors, and avoid violent impact and rain during transportation. There is a danger of burning when exposed to high heat, open flame or contact with oxidants.
