CAS 32648-01-4
:Dibutyrin
Description:
Dibutyrin, also known as dibutyl butanedioate, is an ester derived from butyric acid and butanediol. It is characterized by its clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid form and has a slightly sweet odor. This compound is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water. Dibutyrin is primarily used in the food industry as a flavoring agent and in the cosmetic industry for its emollient properties. Additionally, it serves as a plasticizer in various polymer applications, enhancing flexibility and durability. The substance is generally regarded as safe for use in food products, although it is important to adhere to regulatory guidelines regarding its concentration and application. In terms of chemical stability, dibutyrin is relatively stable under normal conditions but may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of moisture, leading to the formation of butyric acid and butanediol. As with all chemicals, proper handling and safety precautions should be observed to minimize any potential risks.
