Acetyl triethyl citrate

Description:

Acetyl triethyl citrate (ATEC) is an ester derived from citric acid and is commonly used as a plasticizer in various applications, particularly in the production of flexible plastics and coatings. It is characterized by its low toxicity, good compatibility with a wide range of polymers, and ability to enhance the flexibility and durability of materials. ATEC is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild odor and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water. Its chemical structure includes three ethyl groups and an acetyl group attached to the citrate backbone, which contributes to its plasticizing properties. ATEC is often favored in food packaging and medical applications due to its safety profile, as it is considered non-toxic and biodegradable. Additionally, it has applications in cosmetics and personal care products, where it serves as a solvent and emulsifier. Overall, acetyl triethyl citrate is valued for its versatility and performance in enhancing the properties of various formulations.
