The property of acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC)

No toxic and no smell, FDA thinks this product as one of safest plasciziers, and it has been used as food wrapper, such as sensitive dairy products, the bottle cork, the sealing ring of bottled food, soft toy, medicinal products, the coating film of long period releasing medicine, ,gum etc.

Two Plasticizers Regarded Harmless to Environment

According to the evaluation on environmental harm by European Committee, plasticizer DINP and DIDP do no harm to the environment.

The largest plasticizer manufacturer in the world Exon Mobile and European Committee have conducted the research on plasticizer and intermediate for 5 years. Their conclusion is: plasticizer isn't a harmful product to the environment,that is to say, products containing this chemical element are harmless to the environment so no protective or precautionary measures are needed.

 

810 ester

Phthalic acid 810 ester, also called phthalic acid n-octyl,n-capric ester or for short 810 ester, is a kind of general plasticizer composed by ¦Á-normal C8, C10 mixed alcohol and benzene anhydride. 810 ester can be used as the key plasticizer of PVC and with its high plasticizing efficiency, volatility resistance, heat and freeze resistance, resistance to oxidation, sanitation and clarity, 810 ester is evidently superior to the currently widely-used plasticizer DOP. It is applied to plastic industrial products which have special demands of freeze and heat resistance, aging resistance and sanitation, such as heat-resisting cable, plastic spares for car uses, high-grade artificial leather, food and medical packaging material,etc. In many fields, it can replace DINP, DIDP and freeze resisting plasticizer. In developed countries like Japan, Holland and USA, this product has been allowed to be used in food and medical packaging materials. As the replacement of DOP, this product has a broad perspective for development.
